About this map

The Sumter National Forest dominates the landscape of this rural South Carolina quadrangle, where family names are etched into the geography through numerous cemeteries and small community hubs. These crossroads settlements, including Cleora and Brunson Crossroads, anchor a network of secondary roads such as Martintown Road and Five Notch Road. The area is deeply marked by its spiritual and educational centers, from China Grove Ch to the Brunson-Cleora Community Center.

Waterways like Turkey Creek and Cuffytown Creek carve through the wooded terrain, providing a natural structure to the rural layout. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of family-linked landmarks, such as the Hollingsworth-Walker Cem, Cochran Cem, and Price Cem. The presence of Johnson Crossroads and West Store Crossroads reflects a traditional agrarian settlement pattern typical of the mid-20th-century Piedmont region.
