1946 Map of Bat Cave

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Bat Cave sits at the junction of the Broad River and Hickory Creek, serving as a central point in this mountain landscape surveyed just after the war in 1946. The terrain is defined by the Blue Ridge and Dividing Ridge, with numerous peaks like Bearwallow Mtn and Shumont framing the river valleys. The settlement of Edneyville to the southwest is a focal point for local families, evidenced by the Edneyville Cem and several community churches including St Pauls Ch and Mt Moriah Ch. Industry and recreation appear side-by-side, from the Maxwell Mill on Clear Creek to the seasonal destination of Camp Minnehaha Falls. Genealogists will find interest in the scattered burial grounds like Connor Cem and the small mountain gaps such as Hickorynut Gap and Bearwallow Gap that shaped early transportation routes through these highlands.
