About this map

The New River carves a winding path through the Lowcountry on this survey, marking the jurisdictional boundary between Jasper Co and Beaufort Co in South Carolina, and eventually Chatham Co in Georgia. This coastal landscape is defined by its intricate water systems, from the Lucknow Canal and Murray Hill Canal to the marshy reaches of Argyle Island and Tunbridge Neck. The settlement patterns here are deeply rooted in family history, evidenced by a high density of small cemeteries scattered across the terrain, including Pelot Cem, Chisolm Cem, and Hardy Cem.

Infrastructure is anchored by Speedway Blvd and the Okatie Hwy, which connect small communities like Limehouse and Levy to the surrounding region. Near the southern edge, the terrain transitions into tidal reaches where Turnbridge Landing and Cook Landing provide access to the Wright River and Back River. This 2014 edition documents the modern layout of rural roads and drainage canals that have shaped the agricultural and residential character of this coastal borderland.
