About this map

The Seneca River and its major tributaries, including the Keowee River and Whitewater River, form the hydrographic backbone of this northwest South Carolina landscape. This late nineteenth-century survey captures a transition in regional connectivity, as older river-crossings like Cherry Ferry and the Shallow Ford exist alongside newer infrastructure such as the Ravenel Bridge and Earle Bridge. The economy is clearly defined by local milling operations, with family-named sites like Sutton Mills, Richardson Mill, and Watson Mill scattered along the creeks.
