USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

Cumberland National Forest dominates this 1951 topographic study of the Rowan County landscape, revealing a dense network of mountain hollows and ridge-top lookouts like Hickory Flats Lookout. The terrain is characterized by winding drainages and narrow valley floors where small farming communities and educational centers took root. Local genealogy is well-preserved through numerous named burial grounds and rural institutions, including McRoberts Cem, Whisman Cem, and the Adams-Davis Sch.
