About this map

The Pearl River winds through the heart of this Marion County landscape, defining the low-lying terrain south of Columbia. This river corridor is flanked by a dense network of minor settlements and named locales, including Jamestown, Lovelace, and Natcole, which speak to the rural distribution of the region. The landscape is heavily marked by its water systems, from the meandering curves of Upper Little Creek to the convergence of Balls Mill Creek and Dillon Creek.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant detail in the placement of community landmarks like Sunflower Cem, Antioch Cem, and New Zion Cem. The transition from the developed southern edge of Columbia into the outlying timber and marshlands is evidenced by the numerous small road systems, such as Old Foxworth-Jamestown Rd and St Paul Church Rd, which connect the scattered communities of Mildred, Pickwick, and Cheraw.
