1947 Map of Clover

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Lake Catawba and the South Fork Catawba River dominate this 1940s landscape, illustrating the critical intersection of water power and regional development. The map details the complex shoreline created by the Catawba Dam, where recreational and institutional outposts like Camp Steere and the Charlotte Observatory overlook the water. To the north, the industrial character of Belmont and Cramerton is evident, while the rural South Carolina hinterlands show a dense network of country schools and churches, including the uniquely named Shiny Eye Sch and Weeping Mary Ch.
