About this map

The town of Chilhowie sits at the heart of this Smyth County landscape, positioned where the Norfolk and Western railroad and the Middle Fork Holston River converge. This 1935 field examination reveals a highly developed corridor of early 20th-century industry and community life, anchored by the Mathieson Alkali Works near Saltville and the Aerial Tramway spanning Rich Valley. The map detail is particularly rich for local historians, recording numerous rural institutions including Campbells Chapel, St James Ch, and the Gallahorn Sch.
