1978 Map of Sterling

About this map

Cowpen Swamp and Honeygall Creek dominate this low-lying coastal Georgia landscape, where the Altamaha River forms the northern boundary at Wrights Island. The region is defined by its transit history, as both the Southern Railway and the Seaboard Coast Line intersect at the community of Sterling. These rail corridors fostered small rail-side settlements and loading points like Hunters Siding and Frazers Crossing.
