Cornwall Furnace stands as a landmark of the early industrial landscape north of the Chattooga River in this Cherokee County survey. The town of Cedar Bluff serves as the local hub, featuring an Athletic Field, Filtration Plant, and the County Training Sch. The central geography is dominated by the sprawling Weiss Reservoir, which reached its normal pool elevation in the years preceding this field check. The reservoir has transformed the confluence of the Coosa River and the Chattooga, creating a series of peninsulas and inlets where several rural communities remain established. Away from the water, the map reveals a traditional network of agricultural intersections, including Newberry Crossroads, Howells Crossroads, and Tucker Crossroads. Genealogists will find numerous small centers of community life, from the St Marks Ch and Caledonia Ch to the Ebenezer Cem, alongside evidence of older transit routes like the Old Railroad Grade.
