1970 Map of Wildie
USGS Topo · Published 1972About this map
Lake Linville and the entertainment hub of Renfro Valley anchor the southern reaches of this 1970 landscape, where the Louisville and Nashville railroad winds through the valleys of the Daniel Boone National Forest. The map documents a rural transition as modern infrastructure, including a Radio Tower (WVRK) and a Drive-in Theater, appears alongside deep-rooted community landmarks like Brindle Ridge Ch and Union Chapel. Small family settlements and rail-side stops like Wildie, Roundstone, and Conway are mapped in detail, showing their proximity to the rugged Brindle Ridge and Lear Knob. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of several family burial sites, including the Himes Cem, Saylor Cem, and Riddle Cem, preserved here before late-century development altered the local topography.
