A fictional map called "Edwards" is under construction, representing the junction of the North Branch and Cacapon Turnpike and what I have called "Parkes Hollow Road." It includes Edwards Run and the northern end of Parkes Hollow.
The map is not a new map. It is a conversion of the Sylamore map from THE WAR IN ARKANSAS simulations. One of the players in the simulation was heavily engaged at Sylamore during one of the WIA simulations back in January 2015. The terrain is basically the same for this fictional map, but there are enough changes that it will not be very recognizable as Sylamore. I have shifted the river a little, eliminated one of the streams and made some other minor changes to the topography. The town of Sylamore will also be gone, replaced by "Edwards Manor" and a plantation.
Historically, Joseph Edwards did have a plantation along Edwards Run at the end of the 18th Century. This map uses that idea, but in know way represents the actual site or appearance of the plantation.
I am working on getting the creek and river set up and hope to have the map done sometime in the middle of this week.
