The Edisto River carves a winding path through the lowcountry at the convergence of Colleton, Dorchester, and Charleston counties, defining a landscape of dense riverbottom swamps and isolated landings. This 1918 survey documents a river-based economy dependent on a network of water access points like Norman Landing, Martin Landing, and Fishburn Landing. Extensive wetlands such as Big Swamp, Jeffries Swamp, and Caw Caw Swamp hem in the agricultural plateaus, where small settlements like Cottageville and Jacksonboro serve as hubs for the surrounding rural population.
