About this map

Boiling Springs and Cherokee Springs anchor this residential and agricultural landscape in Spartanburg County, showing a well-developed network of small communities and family-named infrastructure. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the North Pacolet River and numerous creek systems, including Buck Creek and Lawsons Fork Creek, which have historically shaped local boundaries and settlement patterns.

Genealogical interest is high throughout the quadrangle, with several well-documented burial sites such as the Buck Creek Baptist Church Graveyard and Davis Chapel Wesleyan Church Graveyard. The transition from rural farmland to suburban growth is evident in the presence of Pearson's Farm Airport and Sherman College of Chiropractic near Valley Falls. The map also captures several important local crossings like Paris Bridge and Sandy Ford Bridge, alongside smaller communities like Carlisle and Mountain View.
