1936 Map of Cairo

USGS Topo · Published 1936

About this map

The Wheeler Reservoir dominates this 1936 landscape, a massive water feature created by the Tennessee Valley Authority that redefined the border between Lauderdale and Limestone counties. The map captures the region during a period of transition, marking the Former Tennessee River channel beneath the rising pool. This survey was conducted just as the reservoir reached its full elevation of 556 feet, forever altering the valley's drainage system and submerged lowlands.
