- Delete The only references to it I could find in a newspaper search were several railway schedules from the 1880s. I'm guessing this was either a railroad siding or at most a short-lived station, and the GNIS recorded it as a populated place rather than a locale, as it's done for so many other railroad locales in the western states.

- Delete It's unclear what the name on the map refers to, but whatever it was doesn't seem to meet WP:GEOLAND or WP:GNG. –dlthewave ☎ 20:53, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- Delete: The marsh itself probably meets WP:GEOLAND, but this is about the supposed community; delete seems to be the only option. BilledMammal (talk) 01:21, 28 September 2021 (UTC)
- Redirect to Glynn County, Georgia. Newspaper results show that this definitely existed. However, the only mentions of it are as a train stop in 1886 through 1888. The only subsequent coverage is in two passing mentions in 1893. jp×g 18:23, 28 September 2021 (UTC)
- Delete. Fails WP:NGEO. While I appreciate JPxG's source hunt, I'm not seeing how mentioning a train spot at this location in the county article isn't WP:Undue weight, and I'm not a fan of redirects to articles that don't mention the topic.4meter4 (talk) 00:07, 29 September 2021 (UTC)
