About this map

Cummings and the nearby settlement of Fechtig anchor the landscape of Hampton County during the late 1980s, serving as small hubs in a region defined by its dense river systems. The Salkehatchie River and the Combahee R wind through the terrain, joined by several local tributaries including Tennants Branch and Ricepatch Creek. The map reveals a rural environment where infrastructure like a prominent Transmission Line and various Tram Lines intersect with the natural drainage basins. Local history is recorded in the placement of several Cem sites, which are scattered among the waterways like Deep Creek and McPherson Creek. This era of the Lowcountry shows a clear pattern of land use where small clusters of habitations are connected by local roads and specialized 4WD tracks, maintaining a layout shaped by the surrounding wetlands and river forks.
