1975 Map of Cowpens NE

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Broad River and the Second Broad River converge in this mid-1970s orthophoto, providing a clear visual record of the landscape at the South Carolina and North Carolina border. The imagery, rectified by the Geological Survey from 1975 aerial photography, reveals a patchwork of agricultural clearings and dense woodland corridors. The town of Chesnee sits in the southwestern quadrant, while the northern reaches show the industrial and residential footprints of Cliffside, Henrietta, and Harris. This specific photographic format is particularly valuable for genealogists and local historians, as it allows for the identification of unnamed homesteads, field boundaries, and rural road networks that standard topographic line maps often generalize. The concentration of settlements near the northern riverbanks suggests the historical influence of water power and river-based industry on the region's development.
