1969 Map of Leeds

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Broad River carves a deep boundary between Union Co and Chester Co, anchoring a landscape largely defined by the Sumter National Forest. This late-1960s survey documents a rural topography where social life centered on small congregations and cemeteries, such as Zion Pilgrim Ch and Mount Olive Cem. The terrain is deeply dissected by numerous tributaries including Browns Creek, Clarks Creek, and Brushy Fork, reflecting the heavy relief of the Piedmont. Transport and utility infrastructure are concentrated along the river corridor, featuring a Powerplant and the Woods Ferry Recreation Area. To the southeast, the Seaboard Coast Line railroad passes through the small community of Leeds, while the Leeds Lookout Tower stands as a sentinel over the timbered hills. This map captures the region before significant modern development, preserving the locations of family landmarks like Thomas Cem and the Pilgrim Sch.
