2020 Map of Cassatt

About this map

The unincorporated community of Cassatt sits at the northern edge of this Kershaw County landscape, defined by a network of creeks and man-made impoundments. The geography is shaped by water, with Llewellyn Millpond, West Millpond, and Ratliff Millpond indicating a history of milling along the numerous branches and creeks. Big Pine Tree Cr and Black Cr drain the sandy terrain, which is intersected by routes that hint at the region's long-standing transportation corridors, such as Old Stagecoach Rd and Old Wire Rd. These thoroughfares suggest early mail and travel routes that predated modern paving. To the southeast, the Kershaw County and Lee County line cuts through the drainages of Pates Mill Br and Fuzzy Br. Significant for local historians and genealogists, the Lockard Cemetery remains a documented landmark in the southeastern corner, while family names like Baskin, Ratliff, and Reynolds are preserved in the local road network.
