2017 Map of McPhersonville

About this map

Mcphersonville and its surrounding wetlands form the heart of this Lowcountry landscape, where the Coosawhatchie River and Tulifiny River carve through the coastal plain of Hampton and Jasper Counties. The map reveals a distribution of rural settlements like Barkerville, Davidson, and Possum Corner, often situated along historic corridors such as the Old Salkehatchie Hwy or near water features like Buckfield Pond. The layout of the land is heavily influenced by the drainage patterns of several branches, including Early Br and McPherson Cr, which feed into the larger river systems. Genealogists and local historians can locate specific landmarks such as the Zahler Cem near the northern boundary and the Possum Corner Bridge crossing. This survey details the intersection of modern transit and historical settlement patterns, particularly around the railway junction area of Yemassee and the smaller landings and crossings that define this part of the South Carolina coastal region.
