2011 Map of Hickory Tavern

About this map

Hickory Tavern serves as the central hub of this Laurens County landscape, where rural roads converge amidst a network of active watercourses. The drainage patterns of South Rabon Creek and North Rabon Creek dominate the interior, while the Reedy River defines the western edge of the quadrangle. This 2011 survey reveals a deeply rooted community characterized by numerous family and church burial grounds, including the Babb Cemetery, Dials Cemetery, and Henderson Cemetery. The presence of Babb Pond Dam D-3018 and Riddle Pond Dam D-2909 indicates water management for local agriculture or residential use. To the north, the settlement of Green Pond and its associated Green Pond Cemetery further illustrate the established settlement patterns of the South Carolina upstate, where small communities developed along creek branches and crossroads like Old Hwy 76.
