About this map

Hartsville and its southern suburban expansion characterize this Darlington County landscape at the beginning of the 2010s. The map illustrates a transition from the urban grid near the Hartsville Post Office to numerous residential developments such as Glen Acres, Kalmia Place, and Pine Acres. Significant water features and lowlands define the local geography, including the expansive Boggy Gully Swamp and the waters of Prestwood Lake and Swift Creek.

Genealogists and local historians will find value in the many recorded burial sites, ranging from the large Magnolia Cemetery and Greenlawn Cemetery in the north to rural locations like Snowhill Cemetery and Wesley Cemetery further south. The map also documents the agricultural and drainage history of the region through features like Jeffries Ditch and family-named locations such as Flinns Crossroads and Lees Crossroads, which indicate established crossroads communities outside the main city center.
