1961 Map of Old Pickens

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

The historic settlement of Old Pickens and its surrounding river valleys define this 1961 survey, which was later updated to show the rising waters of Lake Keowee. This map documents a landscape in transition as the Keowee River and Little River are transformed by major hydroelectric and reservoir projects. Genealogists will find a wealth of country churches and family-linked burial grounds, including Isaqueena Cemetery, St. Peters Church, and Old Pickens Cemetery near the river's Big Bend. The topography also highlights the Keowee High School and industrial footprints such as a power plant and various substations. Local landmarks like Wolfs Stake and the lookout tower near Stamp Creek Church provide specific navigational points in the hills above the Hartwell Reservoir.
