The West Branch Cooper River and East Branch Cooper River converge in this Lowcountry landscape, defining a region where historic riverfront landings were once central to the plantation economy. Local history is deeply embedded in the riverside settlements and estate grounds, with numerous burial sites such as the Strawberry Chapel Cemetery, Bonneau Ferry Plantation Cemetery, and Medway Plantation Cemetery preserved across the terrain. The map documents a network of landings including Strawberry Landing, Hagan Landing, and Cote Bas Landing, alongside larger tracts like the Bonnie Reserve. Traces of the area's agricultural and industrial past are visible through features like Saw Mill, the canal-like Big Dam Lead, and the naming of The Tee at the river's junction, illustrating how the water-bound geography dictated the development of Berkeley County.
