USGS Topo · Published 1889About this map
Wytheville serves as the focal point of this late 19th-century survey, situated at the junction of mountain ridges and the Norfolk and Western Railroad. The landscape is defined by the industrial footprint of iron production, with White Rock Furnace, Speedwell Furnace, and Eagle Furnace located along the drainages of Cripple Creek. These sites, along with various mills like Tilsons Mill and Collins Mill, suggest a regional economy deeply tied to both mineral extraction and water-powered processing.
