2017 Map of Gilbert

About this map

Gilbert and the neighboring community of Summit serve as the primary hubs in this part of Lexington County, where the landscape is defined by a dense network of local roads and water-driven history. The area exhibits a pattern of small rural settlements like Fredonia and Priceville interspersed with numerous family and community landmarks. Genealogists will find several notable burial grounds, including the Old Salem Cem and Derrick Cem. The local economy and recreation are tied to water features such as Twelvemile Creek and Taylor Millpond, while aviation is represented by The Farm Airport and Gilbert International Airpark. This geography is further articulated by many smaller tributaries like Lightwood Knot Cr and Rocky Ford Cr, which have shaped the placement of farmsteads and crossings like Clubhouse Crossroads.
