1943 Map of Georgetown South

About this map

The Sampit River and Winyah Bay define the landscape of this coastal region, where a centuries-old plantation economy transition into the mid-20th century. The intricate network of abandoned rice fields along the riverbanks near Georgetown serves as a silent witness to the area's massive historical rice production. Large estates such as Friend Field Plantation, Hobcaw Plantation, and Estherville Plantation dominate the shoreline and inland acreage, reflecting the persistent land-use patterns of the South Carolina Lowcountry.
