1993 Map of Waverly

About this map

The Little Satilla River and White Oak Creek carve through the coastal lowlands of Camden and Glynn counties, defining a landscape dominated by expansive wetlands and named hammocks. In the early 1990s, the settlements of Waverly and White Oak remained established along the corridor of the Old Dixie Highway. The map reveals a community connected by faith and family history, evidenced by several rural congregations including Mt Oran Ch, Rising Daughter Ch, and Horse Stamp Ch. Distinctive land features such as Hazzards Neck and Wild Neck are separated by intricate swamp systems like Canoe Swamp and Tower Swamp. To the north, The Dike and Gowrie Island sit amidst the river's path, while legacy landmarks like Quarterman Cem provide essential data points for local genealogists tracing long-standing coastal families.
