1990 Map of Hebron Crossroads

About this map

Pudding Swamp dominates the central corridor of this coastal plain landscape, defining the boundaries and movement between Clarendon and Williamsburg Counties. The map reveals a rural settlement pattern anchored by historically significant hubs like Hebron Crossroads and Barrineau Crossroads, where local commerce and community life converged. Farther south, the transition from swampy lowlands to cultivated ground is marked by Spring Bank Plantation and Holly Tree Plantation, indicating the long-standing agricultural focus of the region. Numerous tributary streams, including Rose Creek, Douglas Swamp, and Long Branch, feed into the larger basins, creating a complex drainage system that dictated where early roads and homesteads were established. For genealogists, the placement of several small Cem sites provides essential coordinates for tracing families across this quiet section of the South Carolina lowcountry.
