1949 Map of Columbus City

USGS Topo · Published 1949

About this map

Guntersville Reservoir dominates this 1940s landscape, where the Tennessee Valley Authority's impoundment reshaped the banks of the Tennessee River. The terrain is defined by the sharp rise of Gunters Mountain and Sand Mountain, with the village of Columbus City situated near the narrowing waters of The Narrows. This survey captures the rural character of Marshall County before extensive modernization, showing a network of mountain gaps and hollows like Slater Hollow and Johnson Hollow that dictated local travel.
