About this map

The Salkehatchie River and its various tributaries, including Turkey Cr and Hurricane Cr, define the drainage of this South Carolina landscape. In the northwest corner, the city of Barnwell serves as a primary hub, situated near Barnwell Hill and the headwaters of White Oak Spring. The map documents a landscape characterized by its wetlands and small water bodies, such as Fuller Pond, Fiddle Pond, and Green Savannah Lake.

Rural settlements and landmarks provide significant points of interest for local history, including the village of Kline in the south and the smaller locales of Yenome and Bannon Point. A notable industrial or agricultural landmark, Hagoods Mill, is located centrally along Tobi Cr, reflecting the traditional importance of water power in the region. The map also detail various family-named drainages like Jordan Br and Parker Br, which offer clues for genealogists tracking ancestral lands in the area.
