“A heritage plat map via the Mayhugh Collection……”
City Directories and History: A collection of overlapping historic plats are mainly from Chester County, S.C., diagramming the locations and geographic parameters of hundreds of family farm and plats of historic importance. These refined maps are the work of Chester resident and historian, Tom Mayhugh who graciously provided them for display and research on Roots and Recall in 2017.
***The Heritage map collection is provided to and preserved on R&R by the creator to enhance the understanding and appreciation of local genealogical and history. Any use of these maps without written permission from the owner or sighting full credit is prohibited. Please enjoy and credited appropriately! Permission for use maybe addressed to images@rootsandrecall.com, thanks. Click on each map title to reveal the plats for numerous sections of Chester County. Additional Mayhugh Heritage Maps are also available in Lancaster and York Counties.

*** Peter Wylie, Esq. – whose property shows at the top left quad of the map was an early settler in Chester County and was heavily influential in area politics and development. Additional pages on the Wylie Family are found throughout R&R’s Chester Co section. Peter Wylie I, reportedly lived at the Big Springs where the Atkinson family home and property was later constructed. Historian Louis Pettus writes – “The Wylies lived at Big Spring, Chester County, rearing eight children. In 1820, William and Isabella, with six of the children and their families, migrated to Perry County, Ala. William died in 1830.” Read Ms. Pettus’s article in completion this page.
