This map dates to sometime after the
formation of Pickens County in 1820
and before Fayette County was established in 1824. It is
uncertain if the actual county boundaries,
as depicted here, were ever arranged in this manner.

This map shows the boundaries of Fayette
County around about 1831.
"Fayette C.H." is located in the northwest corner of Township
16 South, Range 12 West.
The township numbers are listed on the left side of the map.
The range numbers (not shown) increase going from right to
left;
thus, "Millport" is in Township 17 South, Range 15 West.
