About this map

The Coosawhatchie River defines the drainage of this Lowcountry landscape, flowing through a network of wetlands and agricultural lands near the Allendale and Hampton County line. The area is characterized by scattered rural communities and crossroads, including Barton, Woods Crossroads, and Moores Crossroads, which serve as focal points for the surrounding timber and farm acreage. Local history is anchored by numerous family and community burial grounds, such as the Smyma Baptist Church Cem and the Brunson - Smart Cem.

Transportation corridors like the Revolutionary Trl and the vicinity of the Allendale County Airport provide modern infrastructure, while natural features like Swallow Savanna and Levy Bay reflect the region's coastal plain ecology. The map documents the persistence of these small settlements and the naming of local waterways such as Little Duck Branch and Buck Branch as they feed into the larger river system.
