2014 Map of Chesnee

About this map

Cowpens National Battlefield occupies the southern portion of this landscape, marking the historic Piedmont site where the state lines of North and South Carolina meet. The town of Chesnee serves as a local hub near the Spartanburg and Cherokee county line, where Us-221 transitions from South Carolina toward the North Carolina settlements of Harris and Henrietta. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the Broad River and the Second Broad River, which feed into numerous smaller tributaries like Cherokee Creek and Suck Creek. Genealogists will find a high density of family and community burial sites, including Floyds Creek Cemetery, Scruggs Cemetery, and Johnson Cemetery. Small-scale aviation is a distinct modern feature of the region, evidenced by Davis Field Airport, Boomerang Airport, and the State Line Ultraport.
