In August 1753, four colonists and their boat crew set out on a potentially dangerous passage of discovery and observations along Georgia’s barrier islands from Savannah southward as far as the St. Johns River in Spanish-held Florida. The Journal of a Visit to the Georgia Islands is a record of that trip, and although unsigned, internal evidence points directly to prominent Georgia entrepreneur Jonathan Bryan (1708-1788) as the author.
