About this map

Lynchburg serves as the focal point of this mid-century landscape, positioned near the intersection of several local waterways including Mulberry Creek and Price Branch. The map reveals a deeply etched topography of ridges and namesake hollows, such as Possumtrot Hollow and Polecat Hollow, where small settlements and family farms once thrived. Significant local history is preserved through the numerous documented burial sites, including the New Herman Cem and Motlow Cem, alongside rural landmarks like Ward Cave.
