1938 Map of Butler
USGS Topo · Published 1954About this map
Roan Creek and the Watauga River converge at the town of Butler, providing a center for commerce and education in the late 1930s. The landscape is dotted with rural institutions that served the mountain communities, including the Watauga Academy and numerous small schoolhouses such as Sink Valley Sch and Bradley Sch. Transport across the waterways and through the steep terrain is evidenced by landmarks like the Dugger Bridge and the Lupperts Flume Bridge, while the Southern Transmission Line cuts across the northern ridges, signaling modern utility expansion into the Tennessee valley.
