1966 Map of St George

About this map

St George serves as the central hub of this South Georgia landscape, situated just above the winding St Marys River at the Georgia Florida state line. The Southern railroad provides a vital link through the territory, passing by the small settlement of Clarking and a prominent Lookout Tower. The topography is dominated by the north-south elevation of Trail Ridge, a significant geological feature that influences the drainage of numerous local waterways including Boone Creek, Deep Creek, and Mims Creek. Local history is preserved in the landscape through sites like the St George Cemetery, Conner-Green Cem, and the Boone Creek Ch. An Old Railroad Grade in the west suggests the evolution of local timber or transit routes that once connected these Charlton County communities.
