1950 Map of Supply

USGS Topo · Published 1951

About this map

Green Swamp dominates the northern reaches of this coastal North Carolina landscape, where early timber and transit routes like the Old Tram Road and Driving Creek Road once cut through the dense wetlands. The map illustrates a transitional period in Waccamaw Township, showing how the dispersed settlements of Prospect and Supply were linked by a network of rural roads such as Prospect Road and Beach Road. Along the winding Lockwoods Folly River and its numerous tributaries, including Royal Oak Swamp and Doe Creek, local life centered around community landmarks like Royal Oak School, Macedonia Ch, and Concord Church. The inclusion of Royal Oak Bridge and Lockwoods Folly Bridge highlights the critical infrastructure required to navigate the area's intricate system of bays and marshes, including Huitt Bay and Cumbee Bay.
