1943 Map of Bucksville

About this map

Waccamaw River meandering dominates this Lowcountry landscape, threading through the massive expanse of Big Swamp and connecting the historic river settlements of Bucksville and Bucksport. At the time of this mid-century survey, the Intracoastal Waterway cuts a straight path through the wetlands, intersecting with Socastee Creek near the community of Socastee. The map documents a rural infrastructure centered on education and faith, featuring several local landmarks like Ebenezer Sch, Virgo Sch, and Hebron Ch. Along the riverbanks, one can trace the remnants of an older economy through the Old Railroad Grade and various landings such as Peachtree Landing and Enterprise Landing. The inclusion of a Coast Guard Sta near the confluence of Bull Cr highlights the importance of maritime navigation in this riverine corridor.
