1871 Map Davidson County

Edgefield Junction is shown on the map portion above.  I have not located another reference to Sunny Point.  Three miles north of Madison Station would be just north of where J. E. Sloan is noted on the map, about where the School house is.  This would be near the original location of Amqui Station.  The Amqui Station of today is actually located near the original Madison Station.
