'''Overlapping trails.''' The '''Occaneechi Path''' was joined by the [[Fall Line Road]] at Petersburg, VA, and followed the same path south to near the Virginia border. There the path split off and went more west to the Occaneechi village near Clarksville, VA. Near there the Occaneechi Path was joined by the [[Upper Road]] and they stayed together all the way south past Charlotte, NC. The [[Lower Cherokee Traders' Path]], the [[Upper Road]], and the west fork of the Occaneechi Path headed west from the Catawba River. Meanwhile, back at Salisbury, NC the Occaneechi Path was joined by the south fork of the [[Great Valley Road]] and the two followed the same route to Augusta, GA. Their route at Camden, SC was joined a second time by the [[Fall Line Road]] which continued on with them to Augusta. The [[Camden-Charleston Path]] also forked off at Camden. On the way from Camden to Augusta the Occaneechi and associated trails crossed the [[Old South Carolina State Road]] and the [[Fort Moore-Charleston Trail]].
