There are several small
communities in the vicinity of Pacolet with distinctive
names. These are not incorporated or official towns.
They have been known by their present names for many
years. For the most part, there are not exact boundaries
of these communities. You know when you get there but
are not exactly sure when you enter or leave it. There
is not much written about the history of most of these
communities that I could find. I have attempted to show
the location of these communities on the accompanying
maps. A short description is given for each community.
Please let me know if you have any further information,
photographs or corrections to what is on this web site.

Locations that has additional information on some of
the above communities.
