Album Info:

"Settlement was one of Oglethorpe's purposes: another was defense against the Spanish. In 1734 he sailed down the coast looking for strategic points to fortify. He found a likely site on a sea island just below the mouth of the Altamaha. This was St. Simons, an island thick with live oaks draped in moss, with good water and a fertile upland."
