1971 Map of Hornsboro

About this map

Hornsboro and the outskirts of Pageland anchor this rural landscape along the border of North Carolina and South Carolina. Surveyed in the early 1970s, the terrain is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including Thompson Creek and Stone House Creek, which drain the low ridges and agricultural fields of Chesterfield and Anson counties. The map captures a moment when the regional economy was centered around local resources, evidenced by several Sandpits and a Quarry in the northern section near Little Brown Creek.
