2014 Map of Pelion East

About this map

Pelion and Gaston anchor the southern and eastern edges of this Lexington County landscape in the early 21st century. The region is defined by a dense network of small ponds and creek branches, including the headwaters of Bull Swamp Creek and Second Cr. Several family and community burial sites, such as Bethel Cem, Antioch Cem, and the Reichter - Richter Cem, are preserved across the terrain, offering significant primary data for local genealogists. The transportation infrastructure is well-established, with the Lexington County Airport at Pelion serving as a prominent landmark alongside the private Darden Airport. Residential and agricultural development follows the corridors of SC-6 and Edmund Hwy, connecting the smaller settlements of Edmund and Macedon. The topographic detail highlights prominent local elevations like Sharpes Hill, which rises above the surrounding wetlands and forest patches.
