2010 Map of Waynesboro East

About this map

Negro Ridge Mine and West Furnace Ridge Mine center an area defined by its early industrial extraction, where small-scale prospecting and iron production left a permanent mark on the landscape. The geography is characterized by an intricate network of hollows, including Louse Hollow and Limekiln Hollow, that drain into the Forty-eight Creek system. This 2010 update shows the persistent rural character of Wayne County, where family-named cemeteries such as Copeland Cemetery and Staggs Cemetery anchor the local genealogy. The presence of the Forge Stack Bridge serves as a reminder of the region's historical ironworks near Lee Hollow Mines. Along the eastern edge, the Natchez Trace Pkwy skirts the drainage of Glenrock Branch, while the settlement at Fourmile Board Hill provides one of the few concentrated points of human habitation in this heavily dissected terrain.
