1983 Map of Lovejoy

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Uwharrie National Forest dominates this section of Montgomery County, where the dense timber of the Uwharrie Mountains is broken only by small rural settlements and scattered family churches. In the early 1980s, these hills remained sparsely populated, with communities like Ophir, Abner, and Lovejoy serving as local anchors. The landscape is defined by its many summits, including Wysner Mountain and Jenny Wright Mtn, and a complex drainage system where Poison Fork and Dumas Creek carve through the narrow valleys. Genealogy researchers will find several well-placed landmarks, from the Lomax Memorial Ch Cem in the south to Zoar Cem near Bunnel Mtn. The southern edge of the sheet touches the outskirts of Troy, where the Norfolk Southern line skirts the town, providing a glimpse of the area's transition from the deep forest to a more established county hub.
