2020 Map of Carlisle

About this map

Carlisle serves as a central hub in this Upstate landscape, where the confluence of Union, Chester, and Fairfield counties meets along the winding Broad River. The terrain is defined by the extensive protected woodlands of the Sumter National Forest, which blankets much of the central and southern portions of the map. Traces of local heritage are visible in the scattered cemeteries, such as Hill Cem and Fish Dam Cem, alongside small rural settlements like Tuckertown and Cool Branch. The hydrography of the region is particularly dense, with numerous tributaries including the Sandy River, Brocks Cr, and Cane Cr feeding into the Broad. Notable landmarks like Shelton Island and family-named water bodies such as Gus Jeter Lake and Salinas Pond provide specific points of interest for those researching local land use and genealogy in this river-and-forest corridor.
