1960 Map of Rockville

About this map

Bohicket Creek meanders through this coastal landscape, separating Wadmalaw Island from Johns Island and Seabrook Island. The settlement of Rockville sits at a strategic bend in the creek, connected to the interior via Bohicket Road. To the west, the North Edisto River forms a wide tidal artery, while the southern shoreline is defined by the shifting sands of Seabrook Beach and Botany Bay Island. This coastal geography reveals a pattern of isolated settlements and maritime landmarks, including Little Rock Ch and St Johns Ch. The presence of Deveaux Bank at the mouth of the river indicates the dynamic nature of the South Carolina coast, where inlets like Captain Sams Inlet and Frampton Inlet constantly reshape the barrier island system.
