About this map

Shulerville anchors this coastal plain landscape, characterized by a distinct pattern of "corner" settlements and an intricate network of island-like terrain features surrounded by wetlands. The 2011 survey reveals the distribution of these small hubs, including Oak Corner, Thomas Corner, and Windom Corner, which likely evolved as high-ground junctions within the surrounding lowlands. The eastern edge of the map features the Shulerville Post Office and New Hope Cemetery, serving as local landmarks for genealogists and regional historians.

Transportation through this area is defined by evocatively named routes like Hell Hole Rd and Tiger Corner, weaving between named topographical elevations such as Horse Island and Barnett Island. Water defines the boundaries of these islands, with Bark Island Slough, Echaw Creek, and Turkey Creek creating a complex drainage system that has historically shaped movement and settlement in this part of South Carolina.
