1969 Map of Carlisle

About this map

Carlisle serves as a central junction for the Southern and Seaboard Coast Line railroads, marking a significant transportation hub within the Sumter National Forest. This late-1960s landscape is defined by the Broad River and its numerous tributaries, including Cane Creek and Sandy River, which carve through the dense woodlands. The presence of several family and community burial sites, such as Hill Cem, Fish Dam Cem, and Kellys Cem, provides a detailed record of local genealogy and settlement patterns. Further south, the rural community of Tuckertown and St Lukes Ch illustrate the dispersed religious and social centers of the era. A Historical Monument stands near the river, signaling the area's deep-rooted heritage, while industrial markers like a Radio Tower and Sewage Disposal plant reflect the infrastructure of a growing Union County.
