About this map

Fountain Inn straddles the boundary between Greenville and Laurens counties, serving as a primary hub for this Piedmont landscape. This 2017 survey shows the transition from the suburban edge of Simpsonville into more rural stretches, where local history is preserved in a significant concentration of burial grounds. Family and community heritage is anchored at Fountain Inn Municipal Cemetery, Durbin Creek Cemetery, and New Harmony Cemetery.

The landscape is defined by the drainage of Durbin Creek and the Reedy Creek, which carve through the terrain alongside older rural crossroads like Gaylords Crossroads and Cooks Crossroads. These smaller settlements, along with the village of Owings to the south, represent the area's agricultural past, even as residential expansion and modern parks like Cannon Memorial Park appear on the western edges of the map.
