1953 Map of Longs

About this map

Waccamaw River winds through the heart of the coastal plain, defining a landscape of extensive wetlands such as Simpson Creek Swamp and the Shallotte area. This 1953 reprint of earlier 1940s surveys reveals a rural South Carolina and North Carolina borderland where water and timber dictated the layout of human activity. The presence of the Old RR Grade cutting through the Bug Hill district suggests a legacy of logging or transport that had already transitioned by the mid-century.
