2024 Map of Hornsboro

About this map

Hornsboro and the outskirts of Pageland anchor this survey of the borderlands between Chesterfield County, South Carolina, and Anson County, North Carolina. The landscape is defined by the headwaters and drainages of Thompson Creek and Brown Creek, where the local economy and social life are reflected in numerous rural cemeteries and congregational sites. Genealogists will find a high density of burial grounds, including the Mount Moriah Church Graveyard, Salem Church Graveyard, and the Oro United Methodist Church Cem. The presence of Hutsey Millpond suggests the area's historical reliance on water-powered industry, while Rock Quarry Pond indicates the geographic utility of the local terrain. A complex network of secondary roads, such as Zion Church Rd and White Store Rd, connects these dispersed settlements and agrarian landmarks across the state line.
