I ran across this map while on another forum (it was posted in 2010) … Since I have no idea 3/4’s of the time where you guys are talking about when I recognized some of the names I figured I’d better store this info somewhere handy … 
… and share, of course …
Anyone who wants to “add” old and archaic landmark names, etc., please feel free and I’ll try to update the map accordingly …

I’m with you law crusher, I only get to fish the lake 1 or 2 times a year would love a “slang name” map. This is a good start if it here’s are willing to share some names.

You’re missing Beards, Wateree, and Indian Fork in Ballentine. Otherwise, great job!

The creek to the west of “Lake Murray of Richland” is Beards. Wateree flows through the “land” in “Richland.” Indian Fork comes off the 1st westerly neck in Beards.

yeah … I see that whole area was left blank … there’s Beards, Lowman and Cedar which all flow to Susie Ebert Island … I think I got where Indian Fork is (to the west of Amenity Island) …
I need to add High Hill/Metts Creek, Goat Island, and the Spence Islands …
I also need to add 16 Mile and Jake’s while I’m at it …
I have no idea what or where the Yacht Club is … I do know where Yacht COVE is - are they one in the same??
Crystal Lake is (I’m guessing) at the outlet of Crystal Creek in front of Milmont Shores …
Is the “Elbow” that area below Buffalo Creek??
What else am I missing?

I would call the “Elbow” that farthest out point from the south shore shore going toward the k in “Buffalo Creek.” Nice work so far!

Very very informative!
How about the gap?
And I believe I’ve heard bomb island?
In this map, Bomb Island and Lunch Island are the same. The island just north of Bomb Island is Wessinger Island. Crystal Creek is indeed Crystal Lake.
The Big Gap is between Dreher Island and “Ella” and the Little Gap is where Camping Creek comes past Dreher Island and into the main lake. The island at the mouth of the Little Gap is Tall Island.
The point west of " Town and Country" and the islands north of “Harbor Side” are Spence Islands. The “Condo’s” are on the dam side of Spence Islands, north of “Harbor Side”.
I will add more later.
