1971 Map of Irmo NE

About this map

Cedar Creek and its many tributaries, including Persimmon Fork and Horse Creek, carve through the rural countryside along the boundary of Fairfield Co and Richland Co. The landscape in the early 1970s is defined by a dense network of country churches and family burial grounds, reflecting the deep-rooted community history of this South Carolina interior. Notable spiritual and social landmarks include Beulah Ch, St Marks Ch, and Taylor Chapel, many of which are accompanied by their own dedicated cemeteries such as St Marks Cem. This era shows a transition toward modern infrastructure with a prominent telephone pipeline and an electrical Substation appearing alongside established landmarks like the Gaging Sta on Williams Branch. The map preserves the placement of small rural outposts like Camp Dixon and recreational developments such as a local Golf Course near Messiah Cem.
