2014 Map of Saint Marys

About this map

The St. Marys waterfront and its surrounding coastal marshlands define this 2014 survey along the Georgia-Florida border. As a gateway to the Cumberland Island National Seashore, the area shows a distinct pattern of historical settlements and modern expansion, from the established grid of the city to newer residential developments like Shadowland and Cypress Lake Estates. To the south, across the Saint Marys River in Florida, the community of Yulee and the village of Chester sit among the wetlands of the Bells River. Family-named landmarks such as Millers Bluff, Reids Bluff, and Roses Bluff mark the high ground along the winding riverbanks. Genealogists will find several burial grounds noted, including Oak Grove Cem in town and the more rural Higginbotham Cem and Yulee Cem to the south.
