2011 Map of Kellys Pond

About this map

Ellis Plantation serves as a prominent landmark in this rural landscape of Burke County, where a network of family cemeteries and small waterways defines the local geography. The area is heavily intersected by named branches and creeks, such as Fleming Branch, Hannah Branch, and Schaffer Creek, which feed into various impoundments like Greener Mill Pond and Kellys Pond. These water features, often regulated by structures like Newberrys Pond Dam, reflect a history of land management for local agriculture and milling.
