About this map

Farrells Mill and the settlement of Ashleigh occupy the central wetlands of this South Carolina landscape, where numerous tributaries feed into the Little Salkehatchie River. The area is defined by its intricate drainage network, including Toby Cr and Turkey Creek, which weave through a terrain of low-lying swamps and timbered basins. In the north, Blackville serves as a local hub at the intersection of several significant routes, including Dexter St and Main St.

Genealogists and local historians can trace family-named landmarks such as Jowers Cem and commemorative sites like Hope Memorial Park and County Memory Gardens. The southern portion of the map is anchored by the edge of Barnwell, showing the transition from municipal outskirts to the rural communities of Hilda and Reynold. This map records the modern road network while preserving the names of historic drainage features like Shrub Br and Jordan Br that once drove the local agrarian and mill-based economy.
