USGS Topo · Published 1892About this map
Industrial activity along the New River and Cripple Creek defines this late nineteenth-century portrait of Southwest Virginia. The landscape is marked by the heavy infrastructure of the era, including the Ivanhoe Furnace, Boom Furnace, and Radford Furnace, alongside significant extraction at the Lead Mines. These operations were served by the Norfolk and Western RR and a network of river crossings such as Jackson Ferry and Jones Ford.
