About this map

Summerton serves as the primary hub for this Clarendon County landscape, where the agricultural interior transitions toward the northern reaches of Lake Marion. The map illustrates a network of rural settlements and crossroads that have defined the region for generations, including Davis Crossroads and Davis Station, the latter of which still retains its Davis Station Post Office. For those looking into family histories, the area is dotted with local landmarks like Evergreen Cemetery, Saint Paul Cemetery, and Butler Cemetery.

The southern portion of the sheet is dominated by the sprawling waters and islands of the reservoir, including the notably named Goat Island. Water access points such as Log Jam Landing and Potato Creek Landing connect the local road system to the recreational and fishing waters. The drainage patterns of Potato Creek and Little Tawcaw Creek further define the terrain, showing the relationship between the low-lying wetlands and the upland farms and communities.
