About this map

Edisto Island and the surrounding Sea Islands appear here as a complex network of marshes, creeks, and plantations during the Second World War. The area is defined by the Edisto River and the Ashepoo River, which carve a labyrinth through Jehossee Island and Little Edisto Island. Transportation across this watery landscape relied on points like Steamboat Landing and the Seaboard Air Line railroad, which serviced inland stops like Rumphs Siding and White Point Crossing.
