2020 Map of Stover

About this map

Stover sits at a geographic crossroads along the boundary of Chester Co and Fairfield Co in this 2020 South Carolina survey. The landscape is defined by the headwaters and intricate drainages of Big Wateree Creek, which is fed by several named tributaries including Willow Swamp Br and Stover Cr. For genealogists and local historians, the sheet preserves the locations of several burial grounds, such as the Gold Mine Cem in the north and the Richmond Covenanter Cem to the south. Historically named thoroughfares like Cornwallis Rd and Old Catholic Church Rd trace the path of older routes through the Piedmont. Significant water management is evident in the Wateree Cr Conservation District Reservoir and several watershed structures, illustrating the modern rural development of this central South Carolina region.
