About this map

The Coosawhatchie River and Tullifiny River define the low-lying drainage patterns of this South Carolina landscape, where small communities like Early Branch and Barkerville are connected by a network of local state highways. In the northern reaches, the Early Branch Post Office serves the surrounding rural residents, while the nearby Zahler Cemetery provides a point of interest for genealogists researching local families. The settlement pattern is characterized by scattered hamlets such as McPhersonville and Possum Corner, often situated near river crossings or significant road junctions.

Transport is centered on routes like Pocotaligo Rd and the corridor leading to Kress in the south. The mapping of Possum Corner Bridge and various named branches, including Big Branch and Broadwater Branch, reveals a terrain shaped by persistent waterways. This survey also records modern infrastructure such as the South Carolina Noname 25002 D-2602 Dam, reflecting the managed water systems common in the coastal plain region during the early 21st century.
