About this map

Meeting Street and Tompkins Cross Roads anchor this rural landscape in South Carolina, where the borders of Edgefield, Saluda, and Greenwood counties converge. Much of the northern terrain is occupied by the Sumter National Forest, a heavily wooded area drained by the intricate headwaters of Little Stevens Cr and Sleepy Cr. The map reveals a settlement pattern of small crossroads and named roads often associated with local families, such as the Dorn Cem and thoroughfares like Gordon Town Rd and McDowell Rd. South of the forest, the topography is defined by the winding paths of Rocky Cr and Turkey Cr, showing a transition from protected federal lands to private agricultural and residential holdings centered around Pleasant Lane. This survey reflects the persistent rural character of the region, maintained by a network of long-established country roads.
