Tuckertown

… former community in NW Montgomery County. Served by post office, 1910-30. Site now covered by waters of Tuckertown Lake, a reservoir for Carolina Aluminum Company completed in 1962. Originally named Milledgeville; renamed about 1900 for an official of a northern firm that operated a rope-manufacturing plant there. The mill was abandoned and houses were moved from the site when construction of the dam for the lake began.
