This map, I believe, was actually a placemat I got at a Taylors restaurant back in 1984. It contains an area road map and lists various facts and trivia about Taylors, SC. Locations of various places of business and restaurants that were in operation in 1984 are indicated on this map, and those businesses were the "sponsors" of the map. Some of them are still in operation in 2013, though they may or may not be in the same location as on the 1984 map, and others are just a memory.

Some facts from the map:

• This region was Indian Territory until 1777 when the Cherokee ceded land in the Treaty of DeWitt's Corner.
• Greenville County was formed in 1784.
• Population of Greenville County in 1980 was 286,370.
• The population of Taylors, SC, [as listed on this map] was unknown!
• Taylors is an unincorporated "city" with undefined boundaries.
• Taylors used to be known as Chick Springs, named for Dr. Burrell Chick.
• Taylors was famous for its excellent drinking water.
• Elevation approx. 900 Ft. above sea level.
