About this map

Lake Murray dominates this landscape, its intricate shoreline forming numerous coves and points across the border of Saluda and Newberry counties. This modern topographic record shows a residential and recreational network of private drives and landings such as Gold Nugget Pt and Crickett Cove that have developed along the water’s edge. The settlement of Delmar remains a focal point in the southern portion of the map, situated near the headwaters of Rocky Cr and Whetstone Cr.

Genealogists will find a significant distribution of family and community burial sites across the region, including Bethel Cem, O'Neal Cem, and the Mount Hebron Cem near Delmar. Further west, Matthews Cem and Nazareth Cem offer additional points of interest for local history. The road network connects these inland sites via landmarks like Blacks Bridge, which spans a narrow reach of the lake, linking the rural timber and agricultural lands that persist between the water and the Lexington County line.
