About this map

Elloree serves as the primary hub of this landscape where the coastal plain meets the sprawling waters of Lake Marion. The town's grid is clearly defined, situated south of the undulating drainage of Halfway Swamp Creek and west of the expansive Santee State Park. The map reveals a transition from organized agricultural and residential areas to the aquatic environments of the lake, where a boat landing and boat ramp indicate the importance of water access for the local community.

Rural life is marked by small settlements like Lone Star and Tina, while the presence of a Gravel Pit and Sand Pit points toward local extraction industries. Multiple cemeteries (Cem) are scattered throughout the region, offering specific points of interest for genealogical research near the Clarendon and Calhoun County line. The terrain is defined by the convergence of Little Poplar Creek and Big Poplar Creek as they flow toward the reservoir.
