About this map

Coosawhatchie River and the Tulifiny River converge in this low-lying region of Jasper County, where the landscape is defined by extensive wetlands and tidal inlets. The eponymous settlement of Coosawhatchie sits near the crossing of these waterways, positioned as a historic transit point. To the south, the growth of Ridgeland is evident, while smaller, distinct locales like Ricetown, Bashan, and Gilmania dot the surrounding area.

The presence of naming conventions like Moultrie Plantation and Roseland Plantation Dr reflects the deep agricultural roots of the South Carolina Lowcountry. These large tracts are accompanied by geographic features such as Grahams Neck, Gregorie Neck, and Huguenins Neck, which extend into the river basins. Long-standing local routes like Morgandollar Rd and Burnt Pine Rd provide a clear view of the rural road network connecting these historic settlements and family lands.
