1941 Map of Capitol Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1944

About this map

Camp Forrest Military Reservation dominates the northern landscape of this 1941 survey, reflecting the rapid military expansion in Tennessee during the early years of World War II. The terrain, known locally as The Barrens, is bisected by the winding Elk River, which serves as a central artery for the region's geography and infrastructure. Significant river crossings such as Morris Ferry Bridge, Leach Bridge, and Kemp Ford indicate the vital transport links connecting rural communities like Buncombe and Duncantown.
