Abstract:
Lost Cove, four hundred acres of rocky but fertile land in the North Carolina mountains near the Tennessee border, was settled around 1861 by Morgan Bailey. It existed as a small community through the years and never totaled more than twenty families. The remote location did not prevent it from having a school, mail delivery, and services of a physician. Discontinued passenger train service and the lack of a suitable road into the community contributed to Lost Cove's demise in 1957.
