1923 Map of White Sulphur Springs

About this map

Lewisburg and White Sulphur Springs anchor this 1923 portrait of Greenbrier County, where the high-altitude landscape is defined by the winding Greenbrier River and the transit corridors of the Chesapeake and Ohio RR. The map illustrates a rural society deeply connected by neighborhood institutions, featuring dozens of small schools such as Balm of Gilead School, Chestnut Flat School, and Solomon Springs School. Historic transportation routes like the James River and Kanawha Turnpike and the Stone House Road cut across the ridges, linking settlements such as Frankford and Williamsburg. Along the river valley, industry and commerce are marked by stops like Renick PO and Sta and Judyton PO Keister Sta, while family-named landmarks like Wicks Knob and O'Neill Knob rise above the drainage of Anthony Creek.
