1971 Map of Mayodan
USGS Topo · Published 1974About this map
The confluence of the Mayo River and Dan River anchors this study of north-central Rockingham County during the early 1970s. The urban centers of Madison and Mayodan are shown in significant detail, revealing a dense grid of residential streets, industrial infrastructure like the Filtration Plant, and municipal landmarks including the Town Hall and Library. The Norfolk and Western railroad tracks parallel the river valley, serving the local economy and connecting these textile and manufacturing towns to the broader region. North of these hubs, the landscape transitions toward Stoneville, characterized by a more dispersed settlement pattern and several community focal points like Glens Chapel and the Stoneville Sch. The rugged terrain near Cedder Mtn and the presence of the Avalon Dam illustrate how the local topography has been utilized for recreation and industry. Genealogists will find value in the well-marked rural sites, such as Llewellyn Cem and Deep Springs Ch.
