2011 Map of Cummings

About this map

The Lowcountry landscape of Hampton County is defined by the braided channels of the Salkehatchie River and its confluence with the Little Salkehatchie River to form the Combahee River. This area is characterized by dense hydrologic networks, including Ricepatch Creek and McPherson Creek, which weave through a rural terrain shaped by early 21st-century agricultural and timber interests. The small settlements of Cummings and Fechtig serve as local anchors, connected by a web of rural roads such as the Old Salkehatchie Hwy and Henderson Rd. Genealogists and local historians will find the Crews Cemetery near the center of the sheet, providing a specific point for family research amidst the surrounding timberlands and family-named landmarks like Crews Farm Rd and Walter Riley Rd.
