About this map

The historic port city of Georgetown serves as the focal point of this map, situated where the Black River and Great Pee Dee River converge. The landscape is defined by its coastal lowlands and a intricate network of waterways including Whites Creek, Sixmile Creek, and the IP Canal. Historic settlements and named land tracts like Rosemont, Kensington, and Ramsey Grove are clustered along the riverbanks, reflecting centuries of river-oriented development and maritime commerce.

Transport corridors like Browns Ferry Rd and N Fraser St connect the urban core to outlying communities such as Graves and Campfield. The map documents the persistent identity of family-named corners and rural settlements including Johnson Corner, Oatland, and Anne. Landmarks such as the Tyson Look Out Tower provide vertical orientation over the swampy terrain of Black Swamp and the dense creek beds that characterize the interior of the quadrangle.
