I did an online search for Maynardville, NC and it does pop up...something about building homes.  Could be a fluke though.

Strange, that it doesn't show up on GNIS or Topozone.  The only thing I can think of is that the town changed its name to something else. Maybe someone in North Carolina familiar with state place names could be of help.

Hello,

According to "Map index to topographic quadrangles of the United
States, 1882-1940" by Moffat, Riley Moore, there is supposed to be a
30' topo in North Carolina named Maynardville, published in 1884.

I'm not familiar with a community by this name in NC.  Yes, Tennessee
has a Maynardville, but I can't find anything for NC, much less a map
by that name.

Could someone please help me by looking through the resources you may
have, such as a more extensive map collection, or other index maps, to
check and see if this might be a mis-print?  Or, if it is correct,
would someone be able to confirm that, and perhaps even provide a
scan?

I've put scans online of the two NC pages from Moffat's book, so you
can see what I'm talking about:

http://www4.ncsu.edu/~jfessic/NCHistTopos_Index.gif

The Maynardville topo map is shown as quadrangle #46, in somewhat the
northern central part of the state.

Thank you very much,
Jeff Essic
