About this map

Ashland and Kellytown anchor this Darlington County landscape, where the agricultural uplands transition into a complex network of wetlands and minor tributaries. The area is defined by the expansive Sparrow Swamp and the Lynches River, which form a natural boundary between Darlington and Lee Counties. These water systems, alongside Turkey Cr and Merchants Mill Cr, have historically dictated the placement of settlements and transport routes.

Genealogists will find a high density of burial sites across the quadrangle, including the Kellytown Cem, Bethlehem Cem, and Savannah Cem. The southern edge of the sheet shows the crossroads of Shannon Hill, Alcot, and Una, while the northern portion features Segars Millpond. Local geography is further marked by distinct depressions like Big Cypress Bay and Little Cypress Bay, which characterize the unique Carolina Bay terrain of the region.
