2011 Map of Saint Marys

About this map

The Saint Marys waterfront and the winding reaches of the Saint Marys River define this coastal landscape on the Georgia-Florida border. As of 2011, the area exhibits a transition from the structured grid of the historic town to the expanding residential pockets of Yulee and Glenwood. The intricate hydrography of the region is evident in the sprawling marshes around Tiger Island and the confluence of the North River, Bells River, and Jolly River. Local heritage is anchored by sites like the Higginbotham Cemetery and Yulee Cemetery, while the river geography is marked by distinctive landings and bluffs, including Millers Bluff, Reids Bluff, and Roses Bluff. This survey also documents the St Marys Cumberland Island area, illustrating the relationship between the mainland settlements and the protected coastal environment.
