1935 Map of Cashes Valley

About this map

Cashes Valley was a mountain community defined by its remote topography and the winding path of Fightingtown Creek in the mid-1930s. This survey, compiled from aerial photographs by the Tennessee Valley Authority and USGS, reveals a landscape of high ridges like the Blue Ridge and Bush Head Mtn that shaped local settlement patterns. Small centers of life are visible at Cashes Valley Ch and Cashes Valley Sch, while the northern area near the Fannin and Gilmer County line shows the influence of the Cherokee National Forest. The map captures a network of trails and ridge lines connecting isolated homesteads to social hubs like Madola Ch and Youngs Chapel, illustrating the early 20th-century reliance on mountain gaps such as Hickorynut Gap for travel before modern road infrastructure.
