2011 Map of Steedman

About this map

The North Fork Edisto River forms a central drainage for this section of Lexington County, where a network of family-named millponds and creeks defines the agricultural and rural character of the region. The map reveals a landscape heavily influenced by water management, with numerous named features such as Abells Millpond, Hallman Millpond, and Brodie Millpond indicating a long history of local industry. Small communities like Steedman and Samaria serve as local hubs, connected by historic routes including Two Notch Rd and Pond Branch Rd. For those researching local heritage, the inclusion of the Old Rowe School and the Boatwright Cemetery provides specific points for genealogical study. The presence of Camp Kinard and Camp Clark further highlights the area's role in communal and recreational land use during this period.
