About this map

Lake Marion dominates this central South Carolina landscape, creating a complex shoreline of bays, ponds, and islands where Clarendon and Orangeburg counties meet. Modern infrastructure bisects the water at the southern end, where the Francis Marion Bridge and W J Gooding Bridge carry traffic across the reservoir. The topography is defined by significant wetlands and managed water bodies like Cantey Bay, Dingle Pond, and Polly-Cantey Pond, which are accessible via terrestrial routes such as the Wright's Bluff Trail and Dingle Pond Trail.

Small settlements and landings serve as local hubs for the area. Saint Paul sits inland near the intersection of Us-301 and Us-15, while Belser Crossroads marks an junction to the north. Along the water's edge, Adams Landing and Polly Landing provide traditional access points to the lake. The map also documents numerous family-named roads, such as Lilly Martin Rd and Jim Ross Rd, providing valuable data for tracing local land use and genealogical connections.
