About this map

The North Fork Edisto River forms the boundary between Lexington and Aiken Counties in this mid-1980s South Carolina survey. Small agricultural and industrial nodes like Seivern and New Holland dot the landscape, connected by a network of rural roads and light-duty tracks. The area shows a clear history of water-based activity and resource extraction, evidenced by the presence of Chalk Hill Millpond, Garvins Millpond, and scattered Clay Pits.

Genealogists and local historians can trace the footprint of rural life through numerous unnamed cemeteries and established community landmarks like Camp Rawl. The topography is defined by significant drainage systems including Dean Swamp Creek and Marrow Bone Swamp Creek, which feed into the primary river fork. A private Landing Strip near New Holland Crossroads reflects the modernization of this traditionally rural landscape.
