About this map

Black River meanders through the heart of this Williamsburg County landscape, defining a complex network of wetlands and low-lying drainages. The area is characterized by significant swamp systems, including Camden Swamp, Dry Swamp, and the aptly named The Morass in the northern reaches. This 2017 survey reveals a rural infrastructure deeply tied to family and local history, with numerous roads bearing names like Lela Harrison Rd, Alice McCrea Rd, and Ike Mitchum Rd.

Central to the local geography is Kellehan Crossroads, serving as a primary navigational point for the surrounding farms and wetlands. In the southeastern corner, the Spring Gully Cem stands near the confluence of Spring Gully and Jumping Run, providing a key landmark for genealogists and local historians tracing family roots in this corner of the South Carolina Lowcountry. The map provides a meticulous record of water bodies, from Cedar Bay to the smaller Sheppard Pond, reflecting the hydrologic character of the coastal plain.
