The Great Pee Dee River forms the natural boundary between Marlboro and Chesterfield counties, winding south past the community of Cheraw. This 2014 survey documents a landscape defined by significant water management and small agricultural settlements. Several historical millponds, including Anderson Millpond, McLaurins Millpond, and Davids Millpond, suggest a long history of water-driven industry along the tributaries of Beaverdam Cr and Naked Cr. Local genealogy is well-preserved through numerous family and community burial sites such as White Oak Cem, Quick Cem, and Ebenezer Cem. The map illustrates the contemporary layout of settlements like Wallace and Chavistown, where residential development follows a network of secondary roads such as Old Wire Rd W and Hickory Grove Rd. This period of the 2010s shows a mix of recreational water bodies like Girl Scout Pond alongside the established rural infrastructure of Montrose and Madeline.
