1953 Map of Longs

About this map

The Waccamaw River and Little River define this coastal Carolina landscape, where the border between North Carolina and South Carolina cuts through the dense wetlands of Cawcaw Swamp. The community of Longs serves as a central hub, connected by the Pireway Road to outlying settlements like Little Town and Olyphic. This 1953 publication reveals a rural infrastructure built around river crossings and timber, noted by the presence of an Old RR Grade and the Worthams Ferry crossing. For genealogists and local historians, the map is a dense record of mid-century community life, pinpointing several specific institutions such as the Deep Branch School, Buck Creek Church, and the dual-purpose Pleasant Plains Ch Waccamaw School. The landscape is etched with numerous named branches like Buck Creek and Cedar Branch, illustrating the complex drainage of the Simpson Creek area.
