About this map

The Halfmoon defines the complex geography of this coastal Georgia region, where the tidal fingers of the North Newport River and South Newport River weave through low-lying hammocks and island pastures. The map details a landscape transition from the inland settlement of Seabrook toward the marshy margins of Colonels Island. Local transportation and historical connectivity are visible through numerous landings, such as Halfmoon Landing, Drum Point Landing, and Thomas Landing, which reflect a river-centered economy and lifestyle. Aviation also marks this coastal strip, with Stevens Airfield, Eagle Neck Airport, and Harris Neck Airport distributed across the terrain.

Genealogists and local historians can locate the Lebanon Cemetery and trace old transit routes like Ferry Rd and Seabrook School Rd. The presence of Olmstead Pasture and Cattle Hammock indicates the continued agricultural and livestock traditions on the mainland side of the river networks, while the winding paths of Dickinson Creek and Timmons River showcase the intricate estuarine environment of Liberty County.
