About this map

McPhersonville and Barkerville anchor this South Carolina Lowcountry landscape, where the Hampton and Jasper county line follows the winding course of the Coosawhatchie River. The area is defined by its intricate drainage network, including the Tulifiny River and Broadwater Br, which once sustained the region’s agricultural and timber economy.

Settlement patterns reveal a mix of established towns like Yemassee and smaller locales such as Early Branch and Possum Corner. Local genealogy is preserved in landmarks like Zahler Cem and the Possum Corner Bridge. Transportation routes, from the busy SC-68 to rural paths like Pocotaligo Rd, illustrate the modern connectivity of these historically significant communities. The map also documents the transition from wetlands to timber tracts, visible in features like Buckfield Pond.
