Hello from Atlanta at the site of Ponder's House,
I was looking at a map of Savannah published in 1895 and I can't think of what a particular abbreviation on the map means.
The abbreviation is HO. Chy
It is seen on a waterway, so it must mean ferry or beach or crossing or something like that.
Here is the map link: Map
Author: Poe, Orlando M.
Author: United States. War Department
Date: 1895
Short Title: Savannah, Ga. and vicinity.
Publisher: U.S. Government Printing Office
The map shows Screven's HO. Chy and other instances near Ft. Tattnall and Ft. Lee near Savannah.
Other places it lists: Old Ho. Chy and Chy of Ho just north of Savannah.
Can anyone help satisfy my burning curiosity?
