1938 Map of Caney Creek

About this map

Lake Ocoee (Parksville Reservoir) dominates the northern landscape of this 1938 survey, illustrating the infrastructure of the Tennessee Valley Authority during the late Depression era. The Ocoee River snakes through steep terrain, powering the Ocoee Power Plant No 2 and supporting industrial activity indicated by a Barge Landing. This area of the Cherokee National Forest shows a landscape in transition, where Civilian Conservation Corps operations are active at CCC Camp No 1451 and CCC Camp No 1452. Small settlements and social centers like Sylco and Vineland are mapped alongside rural educational landmarks including Fairview Sch and Blue Ridge Sch. The map provides a detailed view of the ridges and gaps, from Big Frog Mtn to Eaststep Gap, that defined travel and habitation in these mountains before modern highway development.
