About this map

Sharon and Blairsville anchor the western landscape of this York County quadrangle, where a dense network of country roads connects family-named homesteads and rural landmarks. The terrain is defined by a dendritic drainage system feeding into Turkey Cr and Little Turkey Cr, alongside named branches like Berry Br, Mitchell Br, and the uniquely named Purgatory Br. In the northeast corner, the city of York marks the transition from rural acreage to municipal development, centered around the Lower York Reservoir and Caldwell Lake.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the detailed road naming, which reflects long-standing family ties through routes such as Feemster Rd, Shillinglaw Rd, and Blanton Rd. The location of Union Cem near the northern border provides a specific point of interest for those tracing heritage in the region. This 2014 survey captures the area as it maintains its traditional South Carolina Upstate character, balanced between quiet agricultural lands and the growing outskirts of the county seat.
