1971 Map of Morven West

About this map

Morven stands as the primary center of activity in this 1971 survey of the North Carolina-South Carolina borderlands. The landscape is characterized by a dense network of creek branches and agricultural field patterns, with significant revisions added in the 1980s that reveal changes in woodland cover and infrastructure over a fifteen-year period. This edition, based on 1969 aerial photography and later field-checked, provides a clear view of the rural development spanning the Anson Co and Chesterfield Co line. Local historians can trace the transition from traditional farm layouts to more modern land use patterns, as evidenced by the updated purple markings on the sheet.
