2011 Map of Whetstone
USGS Topo · Published 2011About this map
Whetstone and Mountain Rest anchor this portion of the Blue Ridge foothills, where the Chattooga River and Chauga River networks carve through a landscape of high peaks. One of the most intriguing historical engineering features is the Stumphouse Mountain Tunnel near Tunnel Hill, a remnant of the pre-Civil War effort to connect the South Carolina coast to the Midwest by rail. The map documents several local burial grounds, including Monte Vista Cemetery, Belmont Cemetery, and Collins Cemetery, which serve as vital touchstones for genealogists tracing upland families.
