Dataw Island Street Name Origins
This paper was written long ago and never finished, but it’s interesting none the less. Every wonder how Island Circle East & West got their names? Did you know when you cross the entry bridge to Dataw you go over Curisha Creek? And guess where Pee Dee Point has its origins? In the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina!
These are just some of the interesting facts you’ll discover in the attached document. And if you can help clarify any of this, please contact any of your DHF board members.
