1935 Map of Catlett

About this map

Catlett serves as the central settlement in this mid-1930s depiction of the borderlands between Walker and Whitfield counties. The landscape is defined by the parallel elevations of Peavine Ridge, Taylor Ridge, and Dick Ridge, which dictate the drainage of waterways like Catlett Creek and East Chickamauga Creek. Rural life at this time was organized around small community nodes such as Pine Grove Sch and Henderson Sch, while Gladden Cem provides a specific point of interest for those tracing local family histories. A notable piece of modern infrastructure, a Power Transmission Line, cuts across the southern portion of the sheet, contrasting with the natural feature of Round Pond. The map also captures the early automotive era with the presence of State Highway No 95 winding through the ridge-and-valley terrain.
