It’s actually “Cherry Lake”… look at any map. And not only is there no “P” in Sumter, there is also no “N”. I hear so many people call it “Sumpner”. When I politely tell them “It’s ‘Sumter’”, they reply, “That’s what I said, ‘Sumpner’”. They do not hear the difference. They probably spell it correctly, just don’t pronounce it correctly.
