Names like Yale, Zilpo, Bangor, Cogswell, and Stoney Cove once marked places where families lived and worked for generations. When the dam was built and the waters rose in 1974, those communities disappeared beneath the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eCave Run Lake: History, Memory, and Legacy\u003c\/i\u003e tells the full story of the valley before the lake, the planning and construction of the dam, the families who were forced to relocate, and the transformation of the region that followed.
