Jasper County (pop. 24,777), the southernmost county in South Carolina, is adjacent to Georgia and just a few miles from Savannah.
It’s one of eight Jasper counties in the U.S., all named for Revolutionary War hero Sgt. William Jasper, a German immigrant and South Carolinian.
He died in the Siege of Savannah in 1779.
The county seat of Jasper County is Ridgeland (pop. 4,036).
