1936 Map of Capitol Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1936

About this map

The Elk River defines the central geography of this 1936 survey, winding past a series of early 20th-century crossings and rural community hubs. Industrial footprints are visible at the Estill Springs Power Plant and the Dixon Mill, reflecting an era where local water power and the Tennessee River & N. T. L. R. R. railroad supported the regional economy. Small rural settlements like Buncombe, Duncantown, and Capitol Hill serve as the primary social anchors, each surrounded by a network of family-named landmarks and country churches, including Brick Ch and Knight Ch.
