Second growth yields strong returns through gum and sawlog production, with potential revenues from turpentine and naval stores. Annual per-acre returns vary by land quality, while industry output in 1925 valued at over 845 million dollars.

He settled in Anderson county where he amassed wealth and land across multiple states and built a notable estate near Pendleton. Maverick served as a key surveyor laying out a townsite for Pickens courthouse and left a plat with four riverfront streets and eight cross streets. His lasting impact lingered in local memory through monuments and historical references to his expansive holdings and significant influence.
