1979 Map of Foreston

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Black River Swamp dominates the eastern half of this Clarendon County landscape, where the Pocotaligo River meets a network of wetlands and namesake "bays" characteristic of the South Carolina Coastal Plain. This 1970s-era topography illustrates a rural economy centered on the Seaboard Coast Line railroad, which connects the small settlement of Foreston with Wilson to the west. The map is particularly rich for genealogists, documenting a high density of rural religious centers including Live Oak Ch, Kings Chapel, and St Michaels Ch near Conyers Bay.
