1957 Map of Wassaw Sound

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The Fort Pulaski National Monument stands as a sentinel at the northern edge of this coastal landscape, where the Lazaretto Creek and Tybee Creek meet the tidal marshes of the Georgia coast. This 1957 survey, updated with 1971 aerial data, reveals a complex network of waterways including the Wilmington River and the Odingsell River, defining a series of barrier islands and marshlands. The mapping captures the intricate drainage patterns of the Romerly Marsh Creek and the expansive Wassaw Sound, which separates the northern islands from the densely vegetated Wassaw Island.
