2024 Map of Fingerville West

About this map

The North Pacolet River and its numerous tributaries, including Marys Branch and Obed Creek, carve through this section of the Piedmont along the South Carolina and North Carolina border. This landscape is defined by its dense network of small communities and rural congregations, such as the historic Little Africa settlement and the crossroads of Kross Keys. Genealogists will find a wealth of data in the many churchyards documented here, from the Sandy Plains Presbyterian Church Graveyard in the north to the New Prospect Baptist Church Cem in the south. The area’s aviation and residential growth is marked by Fairview Airport near Campobello, while agricultural roots persist in places like the Wheat Field near the state line. This survey captures a transition from traditional agrarian life to modern rural-residential patterns.
