How to use the Jasper County plat book
A plat book, sometimes called a land atlas, lists each township in Jasper County as a page, with ownership blocks labeled by owner name and approximate acreage. Deeds and recorded plats, not the atlas, still govern land near Coosawhatchie in the county.
Opening the Jasper County parcel viewer
The county's own public map is the Jasper County Beacon site, built on Schneider Geospatial's Beacon platform, and it opens without an account for parcels in Coosawhatchie and the rest of the county. In the county version, the search page takes an owner, an address or a parcel ID, and each report links back to the map view for the piece of ground near Coosawhatchie. Bookmark our Jasper County page too; it tracks the official South Carolina link if it moves and lists the maps around Coosawhatchie.
