1938 Map of Hagood

About this map

The Wateree River snakes through the heart of this mid-1930s landscape, its dramatic meanders creating distinct landforms like Belmont Neck and Devils Elbow. On the eastern bank, the Southern RR corridor links rural settlements such as Boykin, Hagood, and Horatio, while the Jefferson Davis Highway cuts across the northern reaches near Camden. The map reveals a deeply rooted agrarian and early industrial economy, evidenced by several water-powered sites including Boykin Mill Pond, Jordon Mill, and Ellerbee Mill.
