About this map

Edisto River meanders through the heart of this Lowcountry landscape, serving as a natural boundary between Orangeburg, Bamberg, Colleton, and Dorchester counties. The river corridor is defined by complex wetlands and numerous tributaries like Brier Creek, Pen Branch, and Bush Branch. In the early 1980s, the rural character of the region remained strong, centered around established settlements like Branchville and smaller junctions such as Farrell Crossroads. Local heritage is anchored by a network of country churches, including Edisto Ch, Mack Branch Ch, and Lovely Hill Ch, which appear alongside family landmarks like the Mc Alhany Cem. Transportation patterns reflect the area's history, with the Southern railroad line cutting through the northeast corner and the Sandy Island Bridge providing a critical crossing over the main river channel. The map provides a detailed view of the drainage patterns of Buckhead Creek and Brickhouse Branch as they feed into the larger river system.
