2020 Map of Pelham

About this map

The Enoree River winds through this Upstate South Carolina landscape, serving as a natural boundary between Greenville and Spartanburg counties. The terrain is defined by a dense network of tributaries including Dillard Cr, Gilder Cr, and Brushy Cr, which historically shaped the settlement patterns of towns like Pelham, Batesville, and Reidville. While Greer and Simpsonville mark the larger municipal footprints, the map is rich with local heritage sites, particularly its country churches and associated burying grounds. Genealogists will find interest in the Five Forks Baptist Church Graveyard, Antioch Presbyterian Church Graveyard, and Clear Spring Baptist Church Graveyard. Aviation history is noted at Chandelle Airport, while old river crossings are preserved in names like Bennetts Bridge, Anderson Bridge, and Cooper Bridge.
