2024 Map of Leesburg

About this map

The expansive training grounds of Fort Jackson dominate the southwestern portion of this map, reflecting the long-standing military presence near Columbia. This landscape is defined by its complex hydrology, where numerous tributaries like Bee Branch and Leesburg Branch feed into Colonels Creek, eventually moving toward the Wateree River at the eastern boundary. The settlement pattern is largely rural, centered on the community of Leesburg and the northern hamlet of McCaskill. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of several historic burial sites, including the Mount Pilgrim Church Graveyard and Pine Grove Baptist Church Cem, which serve as landmarks of the area's religious heritage. The terrain transitions from the elevations of Dunns Mt down to the low-lying reaches of English Swamp and White Marsh Swamp, showcasing the varied wetlands and drainage systems characteristic of the South Carolina Midlands.
