2020 Map of Cross Hill

About this map

Cross Hill and Mountville anchor this southern Laurens County landscape, where the terrain is defined by a dense network of creek drainages feeding into the Little River. The settlement pattern reflects deep-rooted local history, with small clusters like Milton and White Plains Crossroad connected by a web of rural routes. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of several burial grounds, including Head Springs Cem, Cross Hill Cem, and Bethabara Cem, which serve as vital markers of early community life. Notable hydrographic features such as Hollingworths Pond and the winding courses of Mudlick Cr and Campbell Cr illustrate the drainage of the Piedmont towards the Newberry County line. Small-scale infrastructure like Thomason Airfield adds modern context to this primarily agricultural and residential area.
