1943 Map of Plantersville

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Historic rice culture and riverfront settlement define this landscape along the Pee Dee River and Waccamaw River in the early 1940s. The map illustrates a dense concentration of riverine estates including Bates Hill Plantation, Holly Grove Plantation, and Chicora Wood Plantation, documenting the land divisions of Georgetown County before late-century modernization. The sprawling wetlands of Bull Island and Sandy Island are carved by intricate waterways like Bull Creek and the Thoroughfare, showing a region where water remained the primary corridor for commerce and transport. Inland, the influence of the U S Army Reservation borders the expansive Carvers Bay, while small community centers such as Plantersville and Belin serve the rural population. Local life is further detailed through landmarks like Prince Frederick Ch and several rural schools, including the Sandy Island Sch and St Mark Sch.
