1964 Map of Mount Hermon
USGS Topo · Published 1986About this map
White Oak Mountain dominates the central landscape of this quadrangle, shaping the drainage patterns for Sandy Creek and the Little Sandy Creek that flow toward the outskirts of Danville. The map records a rural Piedmont community defined by its crossroads and water-powered history, notably at Laniers Mill and Pleasant Gap. The Southern Railroad runs through the eastern portion of the sheet, connecting settlements like Blairs and Witt to the industrial hub of Danville. This 1960s-era topography, later updated in the mid-1980s, reveals a network of country churches such as the Church of Truth and Gilfield Ch, alongside educational landmarks like the Mount Hermon Sch. The transition from agrarian land use to suburban development is evident as one moves south toward the city limits and the Highland Burial Park.
