1943 Map of Wando

USGS Topo · Published 1943

About this map

Wando River dominates this coastal South Carolina landscape, carving a wide path through the marshlands and tidal creeks of Berkeley and Charleston Counties. The settlement at Wando and the neighboring community of Cainhoy sit at a strategic point where land routes meet the water, supported by sites like Martins Point Landing and Lachicotte Landing. This survey reveals a transition from the water-based transport of the Lowcountry to overland rail, evidenced by the Lumber Railroad cutting through the interior forests north of the river.
