About this map

The Wateree River defines the western edge of this landscape, where the legacy of early river transport and water-powered industry is still evident in the local geography. Settlements like Boykin, Rembert, and Hagood anchor the interior, while the riverbank is marked by historical crossing points such as Ancrum Ferry and Sumters Landing. The agricultural character of the region is underscored by the presence of the South Carolina Penitentiary State Farm Number One near White Oak Slash Lake.

A network of ponds and mills highlights the importance of the local drainage system, with Dinkins Mill and Ellerbees Mill situated along Rafting Creek and Little Rafting Creek. These features, along with numerous dams like Harvins Pond Dam, illustrate how the various branches—including Gum Swamp Branch and Swift Creek—were utilized for land management and milling operations in the early 21st century.
