About this map

North Greenville Jr College serves as a focal point for the Tigerville community, located at the base of the rising foothills. This landscape is defined by the headwaters and branches of the Middle Tyger River and Tyger River, which carve through the terrain near Tillet Mtn and Pax Mountain. The map reveals a post-war rural infrastructure transitioning toward modern institutional use, evidenced by the presence of both the O'Neal Detention Center and the State Fish Hatchery near Beaverdam Creek.

Numerous country churches, such as New Salem Ch, Tyger Ch, and Fews Chapel, illustrate the established social fabric of settlements like Highland and Skyland. The inclusion of the Campbell Covered Bridge on Creek highlights a preserved piece of local engineering history. Aviation is represented by small rural facilities including Wilbanks Airport and O'Neal Airport, reflecting the area's development through the early 1980s.
