1919 Map of Wando

USGS Topo · Published 1919

About this map

The Wando River serves as the central artery for this coastal landscape, where the tidal marsh and wooded lowlands of Berkeley and Charleston counties met in the years following World War I. Small riverside settlements like Wando and Cainhoy are documented at a time when water transport and early overland routes defined local movement. Several rural institutions are mapped, including St Matthews Church, Robertson Church, and St Pauls Church, alongside educational sites such as Phillips School and Christ Church Academy. The map illustrates the era's reliance on river access points, specifically marking Lachicotte Landing and Martins Point Landing, which likely facilitated the transport of timber and agricultural goods. A network of named roads, such as Lumber Road and Ferry Road, connects the inland woods to the marshy tributaries like Guerin Creek and Clement Creek.
