1939 Map of Cedar Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

The Nolichucky River meanders through the heart of this East Tennessee landscape, carving deep bends like Cochran Bend and Linebaugh Bend as it separates the lowlands from the rising slopes of Chuckey Mountain. In the late 1930s, the rural economy of Greene and Cocke counties relied on these waters, evidenced by the Meadow Creek Mill and the numerous fords and spans such as Walker Ford and Allen Bridge. The valley floor is a dense network of small family-centered communities and social hubs, marked by a high concentration of country schools and houses of worship like Susong Memorial Ch, Hunt Chapel, and Oak Grove Sch. Timber and agriculture define the ridges, while the Sevier Highway provides the primary artery through Seven Springs Valley, connecting crossroads like Russell Crossroad to the surrounding foothills of the Cherokee National Forest.
