1968 Map of Leasburg

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Leasburg and the surrounding Caswell County countryside are captured here in the late 1960s, a period defined by the recent creation of Hyco Lake. This expansive reservoir dominates the eastern half of the map, its complex fingers reaching into the valleys once carved by Hyco Creek and Cobbs Creek. The landscape transitions from these new shorelines to traditional North Carolina uplands, where historical community life centered on a dense network of country churches like Olive Hill Ch and St James Ch. Evidence of the region's infrastructure and rural industry is visible through labels for Blanch Prison, a local Quarry, and the Pipeline corridors cutting through the terrain. From the northern settlement of Semora down to the southern roads, the map details the transition of a landscape shifting from agricultural roots toward new recreational and utility uses.
