About this map

Lake Moultrie dominates the northern landscape of this South Carolina Lowcountry map, bordered by the West Dike and the Santee National Wildlife Refuge. The settlement pattern centers on the Moncks Corner hub, where the Seaboard Coast Line railroad and local infrastructure like the Berkeley County Airport and the county Courthouse define the mid-century civic center.

Genealogists will find a high concentration of rural landmarks, including numerous houses of worship such as St Johns Ch, Ebenezer Ch, and Nazareth Ch. The terrain transitions into the dense wetlands of Black Tom Bay and Bee Tree Bay, illustrating the geographic constraints that shaped early roads and the Old Railroad Grade. Smaller communities like Pinopolis, Wampee, and Oakley are meticulously detailed, providing a clear record of Berkeley County's rural structure before modern expansion.
