1952 Map of Camp Austin

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The Wartburg community serves as a focal point in this 1952 field revision, situated where the Emory River bends through the valley floor. The landscape is defined by the sharp rise of Lone Mountain and the Cumberland Plateau, with the Southern railroad line following the winding river corridor through Deermont and Camp Austin. A notable institutional presence is the Brushy Mountain State Penal Farm, located in the rugged northeast near Rough Ridge Branch. The map reveals a deeply established social geography, evidenced by numerous small family and community burial grounds such as Summers Cemetery and Honeycutt Cemetery. Remote settlements like Catoosa are accessible via winding roads that cross Crab Orchard Creek, while local education and faith are represented by the Whiteoak School and Mossy Grove Church.
