1968 Map of Cardiff

About this map

The Mt Roosevelt State Forest and Catoosa Wildlife Management Area dominate this section of the Cumberland Plateau, where the landscape transitions from high ridges to the industrial and transportation corridors of the valley. In the late 1960s, the area around Rockwood and Cardiff shows a complex network of resource extraction and infrastructure, including numerous strip mines and the Southern railway line. Transportation history is layered here, with the Old Walton Road and the Broadway of America traversing the terrain near Westel Community Center. The map is particularly useful for genealogists, as it identifies more than a dozen local burying grounds, such as Skidmore Cem, Piney Cem, and Farmer Cem, alongside community landmarks like Mt Pisgah Church and the Rockwood Municipal Airport.
