1971 Map of Ronceverte
USGS Topo · Published 1975About this map
The Greenbrier River anchors this early 1970s landscape, winding past the city of Ronceverte where the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad corridor follows the northern bank. This survey documents the rural character of southeastern West Virginia, highlighting the community of Organ Cave and the spread of historical landmarks across Irish Corner. The terrain is defined by the sharp descent of White Rock Mountain and Jones Mountain, which drop into the drainage basins of Second Creek and Hokes Creek. Numerous rural meeting houses and burial sites, such as Salem Ch, Elizabeth Chapel, and Morgan Cem, are scattered along the ridge roads. Small rural hubs like Secondcreek and Monitor appear near the intersection of mountain drafts and local watercourses, illustrating the traditional settlement patterns of Greenbrier and Monroe counties before significant modern expansion.
