The Savannah River and the expansive J. Strom Thurmond Reservoir dominate this Georgia-South Carolina borderland, where the historic river crossing culture is still preserved in names like Hesters Ferry, Morrahs Ferry, and Cades Ferry. The landscape is a mosaic of public timberlands within the Sumter National Forest and small settlements such as Chennault and Graball. Local genealogy and community history are anchored by landmarks like the New Tabernacle Baptist Church and its associated Cem, alongside the landing at Modock Lndg. This modern survey illustrates how 20th-century water management projects transformed the original river valley into a complex network of inlets and points, including Pistol Creek and Fishing Creek, which now define the geography for local residents and recreationists in Lincoln and McCormick counties.
