2014 Map of Furman

About this map

The town of Furman serves as a central hub in this Southern landscape, situated at the intersection of several local routes like Savannah Hwy and Causey Rd. This early 21st-century survey reveals a rural network of small communities including Stafford, De Loach, and Stokes, which are connected by a web of named country roads that often reflect local lineage or landmarks. The eastern edge is defined by the Hampton Co Jasper Co boundary, where the terrain becomes increasingly dictated by the intricate hydrology of Cypress Cr and the winding Zigzag Branch. To the west, Black Swamp marks a significant natural feature, while religious and social history is anchored by landmarks such as Lebanon Church Rd. The map illustrates a settled agricultural region where road names like Gumtree Rd and Stove Pipe Rd offer a glimpse into the vernacular geography of the South Carolina Lowcountry.
