About this map

Adams Run and the neighboring settlements of Hollywood and Meggett anchor this coastal South Carolina landscape, where the tidal fingers of the Lowcountry meet established rural communities. The map detail highlights a complex network of waterways, including the Intracoastal Waterway, Dawho River, and Toogoodoo Creek, which define the geography of islands like Slann Island and Jehossee Island. A series of family-named roads such as Doctor Taylor Rd and Hickman Hill Rd suggests a long history of local land ownership and lineage.

Genealogists and local historians can trace the proximity of the Prices Cem to the settlement of Barrelville, or locate the Too Goo Doo Farms Airport near Gibson. The transit infrastructure is punctuated by the Dawho Bridge, connecting the mainland to the marsh-fringed islands. This 2020 update provides a contemporary view of these historic agricultural and maritime areas, documenting the modern footprint of settlements like Baptist Hill against the ancient backdrop of Big Bay and Riley Bay.
