1948 Map of Verdery

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Sumter National Forest dominates the landscape of this South Carolina Piedmont region, where the convergence of Abbeville, Greenwood, and McCormick counties creates a complex network of rural communities and church-centered settlements. Based on aerial photography from 1939 and ground surveys in the late 1940s, the map illustrates a landscape defined by its watercourses, including the prominent Long Cane Creek and its many tributaries like Stillhouse Branch and Sawmill Creek. Rural life is anchored by institutions such as Cedar Springs Ch and Long Cane Sch, while the Charleston and Western Carolina railroad cuts through the eastern edge near Verdery. Notable topographical features like Parsons Mtn with its Lookout Tower provide a contrast to the flatter bottomlands of Big Bottom and Reedy Branch, highlighting the localized timber and farming geography of the post-war era.
