2011 Map of Sycamore

About this map

Salkehatchie River drainage patterns define this South Carolina landscape, where the settlements of Sycamore and Ulmer serve as local anchors. The map reveals a rural economy tied to the land and water, evidenced by Tutens Millpond and the Tutens Mill Pond Dam in the southern reaches. Numerous family and community landmarks are scattered across the terrain, including Mount Calvary Cemetery, Kirkland Cemetery, and Harter Cemetery, which offer valuable points of reference for genealogists and local historians. Transportation is primarily facilitated by a network of state roads like State Hwy S-3-191 and older routes such as Old Orangeburg Rd. The presence of the Ulmers Lookout Tower and Phillips Airstrip highlights the mix of forest management and private aviation infrastructure in the early 21st century. The wetland systems of Miller Swamp and Jackson Branch weave through the lower elevations, illustrating the hydrological character of the region.
