1967 Map of Bayleaf

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

The Neuse River winds through the northeast corner of this landscape, crossed by the Penny-Hester Bridge in an era when the rural fringes of Raleigh were beginning to see suburban expansion. This survey shows the transition of northern Wake County, where small crossroads like Bayleaf, Six Forks, and Leesville remained distinct settlements amidst a network of country churches such as Mt Bethel Ch and New Bethel Ch. The presence of Soapstone Ch and the extensive William B Umstead State Park to the southwest highlights the varied land use of the period, from active local industry to large-scale conservation. Moving south toward the city, the development around Lake Lynn and the Wildwood Country Club contrasts with the numerous small family burial grounds marked Cem that dot the wooded ridges near Upper Barton Creek and Honeycutt Cr.
