1965 Map of Mountain Valley

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Turkeycock Mountain dominates this landscape, serving as a natural divider where the borders of Franklin, Henry, and Pittsylvania counties converge. In the mid-1960s, the area featured a mix of small rural hubs and agricultural terrain, with commerce centered at Parkers Store and Giles Store. The drainage patterns are intricate, with Snow Creek and Leatherwood Creek defining the western reaches, while the Turkeycock Mountain Wildlife Management Area occupies the central ridgeline. The map provides a detailed look at rural community life through its numerous religious and social landmarks, including Boones Chapel, Mountain Valley Ch, and Mt Parris Ch. Industry is represented by historic sites like Swansons Mill and Hodges Mill, alongside the Turkeycock Lookout Tower overlooking the forested gaps and peaks like Hickory Knob.
