About this map

The Pee Dee River defines the border between North Carolina and South Carolina on this 2013 survey, which documents the rural landscape surrounding the towns of Morven and McFarlan. The geography is shaped by numerous tributaries, including Whortleberry Cr, Mill Cr, and Westfield Cr, which feed into the main river channel. Notable for local historians is the site of Old Sneedsboro, a colonial-era river town that once stood as a major inland port and commercial center for Anson County.

The map also captures the legacy of the local milling industry and agricultural life, with sites like Everetts Mill and Brocks Mill located near their namesake water bodies, Everetts Lake and Brocks Mill RD. In the river itself, distinctive landmarks like Stag Rock and Horse Island near Gordons Falls provide specific points of reference for those tracing historical property lines or river navigation history. Several family-named features, such as Nelson Lake and Paul Wallace Pond, reflect the long-standing landownership patterns of the region.
