1943 Map of Big Spring

About this map

Chickamauga Reservoir dominates this 1940s landscape, reflecting the massive transformation of the Tennessee River valley during the early TVA era. The waters surround the large Hiwassee Island and back into numerous tributaries like Richland Creek and Mud Creek. This period shows the transition from river-dependent commerce to a managed waterway, evidenced by the Cotton Port Ferry crossing still in operation near the Malaria Control Base.
