1982 Map of Tony Hill Bay

About this map

Tony Hill Bay and Bull Bay characterize this Lowcountry landscape in the early 1980s, where Carolina bays form distinct oval depressions across the coastal plain. The drainage network is defined by the Little Salkehatchie River and its tributaries, including Lemon Creek, Drawdy Branch, and Hurricane Branch. This era shows a community structured around small country churches and family burial grounds, providing significant data for genealogists. Numerous houses of worship, such as Hunters Chapel, Zion Ch, and Gethsemane Ch, are situated along the rural road network. The boundary between Bamberg County and Colleton County runs through the southern portion of the map, near the Carter Cem and Prospect Cem.
