1968 Map of Olive Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1994

About this map

Hyco Lake dominates the northwest quadrant of this Person County landscape, its sprawling shoreline created by the impoundment of the Hyco River and tributaries like South Hyco Creek. The presence of a large Powerplant and multiple electrical substations indicates the industrial importance of the reservoir during the late 1960s. Rural life is anchored by small communities such as Ceffo, Concord, and Olive Hill, alongside landmarks like Woodland Sch and the Lamberth Memorial Ch Cem. To the southeast, the terrain transitions toward the outskirts of Roxboro, where Roxboro Lake and Chub Lake provide further water resources. This survey captures a moment when traditional crossroads like Longs Store and Five Forks persisted even as modern infrastructure and utilities were reshaping the rural character of the region.
