2024 Map of Liberty Hill

About this map

Liberty Hill sits atop the high ground where the borders of Lancaster and Kershaw counties meet, overlooking the intricate northern reaches of Wateree Lake. This modern survey illustrates a landscape defined by the intersection of colonial-era settlements and twentieth-century hydroelectric development. The village of Liberty Hill maintains its historical footprint with the Liberty Hill Presbyterian Church Graveyard serving as a central genealogical landmark. To the south, the irregular shoreline of the reservoir creates numerous coves and points, such as those near Rochelle Creek and Fox Creek. Historical river crossings, now part of the modern road network or submerged by the lake, are preserved in names like Peays Ferry and Mickles Ferry. The map also documents smaller interior landmarks like Hilton-House Pond and Mineral Spring, alongside several remote burial grounds including New Grove Cem and the Summerville-Cunningham Cem.
