About this map

Waynesville and Hazelwood serve as the primary hubs in this early 1940s survey of the mountain terrain where the Plott Balsams meet the Pisgah National Forest. The map documents a diverse local economy and infrastructure, ranging from the industrial presence of the Southern railroad and the Grassy Ridge Mine to state-run facilities like the Prison Camp and the Morrison Fish Hatchery. Small settlements like Saunook and Balsam are nestled along the winding Richland Creek, while the rural landscape is dotted with centers of community life including the Allen Creek Sch and multiple houses of worship such as Pleasant Balsam Ch and Fairview Ch.
