About this map

Campobello and the surrounding Spartanburg County orchard and farm country are defined by a network of rivers and man-made impoundments. The South Pacolet River cuts through the northern landscape, while the Middle Tyger River and North Tyger River drain the southern reaches towards Lyman Lake. This 2011 survey reveals an area where water management is central to the land, evidenced by numerous named dams and ponds such as Gramling Brothers Lake Dam Five and Vaughn Pond.

For family historians, the map identifies several significant burial sites, including Gowensville Cemetery and Liberty Cemetery. The transition between the rural settlements of Little Chicago and Gowensville is marked by a mixture of traditional terrain like Collins Mountain and modern transportation features like Sloan Airport. Small crossroads communities such as Gramling and Mascot illustrate the enduring pattern of local commerce and residency in this part of the South Carolina upstate.
