About this map

Lake Marion dominates the northeastern horizon of this landscape, its expansive shoreline meeting the southern edge of the Clarendon Co and Orangeburg Co border. The settlement of Santee serves as a hub in the northwest, while smaller crossroads and communities like Vance, Milligans, and Bull Station are scattered across the interior. The map reveals a high concentration of family and community burial sites, including Bell Cem, Dantzler Hart-Cem, and Felder Cem, which offer significant value for genealogical research in this region of South Carolina.

Drainage systems such as Horse Range Swamp and Target Swamp weave through the lower elevations, defining the natural hydrology between the developed corridors of Old Number Six Hwy and Five Chop Rd. Aviation history is noted at Avinger Field Airport, situated centrally between the primary townships. The road network, including historic routes and more modern developments like Bradford Blvd, illustrates the area's growth patterns at the time of this 2014 survey.
