2024 Map of Barr Lake

About this map

Lexington and its surrounding rural corridors appear in high detail on this contemporary survey, showing the expansion of the county seat south toward Red Bank and White Knoll. The landscape is defined by the complex drainage of Twelvemile Creek, Red Bank Creek, and Congaree Creek, which feed a series of established water bodies including Barr Lake and Gibsons Pond. For genealogists and local historians, the inclusion of Pisgah Church Graveyard provides a critical point of reference for family research in this part of the Midlands. The transition from the dense street grids of the north to the more scattered settlements of Elsie and Ethon Crossroads illustrates the region's evolving land use. Small aviation infrastructure like Whiteplains Airport and numerous private water features like Taylor Millpond and Zimmerman Pond reflect the modern suburban-rural character of Lexington County today.
