2016 Map of Johns

About this map

Laurinburg and its surrounding rural hamlets anchor this 2016 survey, where the agricultural landscape of Scotland County meets the South Carolina border. The map highlights the sprawling campus of the St Andrews Presbyterian Coll and the adjacent Saint Andrews College Lake in the northwest. Moving southeast, the landscape is defined by the headwaters of numerous coastal plain streams like Leith Creek, Bridge Creek, and Bull Branch, which carve through the low-lying terrain. Small settlements such as Johns, Hasty, and McArthur Crossroads are connected by a network of rural routes, including the namesake Johns Rd. Genealogists and local historians will find the Stewartsville Cem and traces of older infrastructure, such as the path along Oak Grove School Rd, valuable for locating family landmarks within this historic farming corridor.
