1963 Map of Prater

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Prater and Vicey sit within a landscape defined by the deep valleys of Russell Prater Creek and its many tributaries, such as Greenbrier Creek and Pawpaw Creek. The 1963 survey, updated with late-1970s aerial data, reveals a community structure tied to these hollows, where small settlements like Viers and Leemaster are joined by a network of country churches and schools. Local history is recorded in the names of landmarks like Butcherknife Br, Painter Lick Br, and Tilda Anderson Branch.
