About this map

Cohutta Mountain dominates this 1911 survey of the borderlands between Georgia and Tennessee, where the landscape is defined by the headwaters of the Conasauga River and Jacks River. Along the western edge, the Louisville & Nashville RR facilitates commerce for small settlements like Tennga, Fairy, and Crandall. This era shows a mountain economy tied to timber and milling, evidenced by the presence of Hassler Mill on Holly Creek and multiple water features named for local industries, such as Hickory Mill Creek and Mill Branch. The complex terrain includes numerous named peaks and gaps, including the uniquely named Potatopatch Mtn, Rich Knob, and Sassafras Gap. The intricate network of branches and coves, like Lust Cove Branch and Sugar Cove Creek, reflects a deeply dissected topography where family-named landmarks and small-scale operations were the primary markers of human activity before modern development.
