2014 Map of Rabon Crossroads

About this map

Wateree Lake and the Wateree River dominate this Kershaw County landscape, illustrating a geography defined by its waterways and crossings. The map details several historically significant transit points such as Gents Crossing and Graves Ford, which historically facilitated movement across the river before modern infrastructure was fully established. Settlement patterns are concentrated in named residential areas like Branham Heights, Eagles Nest, and the northern edge of Camden. For genealogists and local historians, the sheet is particularly valuable for its record of family-named landmarks and resting places, including Ebenezer Cem, Saint Matthews Cem, and Chestnut Cem. The topography is shaped by numerous tributaries, including Grannies Quarter Cr and Sawneys Cr, which fed into the local mill economy as evidenced by Vaughans Millpond on the eastern edge of the quadrangle.
