1946 Map of Reid

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Lake Toxaway and the surrounding Blue Ridge wilderness define this mid-century portrait of the borderlands between North Carolina and South Carolina. Grounded in a 1946 field check by the Tennessee Valley Authority, the map illustrates a landscape of extreme relief, where the Toxaway River and Whitewater River drop through falls like Rainbow Falls and Lower Falls. The settlement at Oakland and the Oakland Cem serve as focal points for local genealogy, while the Lake Toxaway Ch stands near the northern shoreline. Deep in the interior, family and place-named landmarks such as Puncheon Camp Mtn and Misery Mtn reflect the isolation of these mountain tracts. Further south, the map documents the upper reaches of Lake Jocassee as it meets the rugged fingers of Sumter National Forest and Nantahala National Forest.
