Coordinates[edit]

I found the coordinates by Googling "St. Catherine's Island South Newport, Georgia address". This page was the 13th result (1 May 2008) giving coordinates for tides at certain points around the island. From there, I googled the coordinates and zoomed out. After moving the pointer to the middle of the island, I converted the coordinates to DMS and added them here to be able to display a map. --Dudemanfellabra (talk) 03:41, 2 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation[edit]

perhaps there should be a disambiguation for St.Catherine's Island, as there are many islands with this name not least the island fort of St. Catherines in Tenby, UK. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.195.169.78 (talk) 00:00, 16 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

“

Extensive research has been done on the island and its paleoecological features by scientists, such as Robert W. Frey, S. George Pemberton, and William James Tripp. It has distinct features specific to the Glossifungites Ichnofacies.
