1946 Map of Corbin Knob

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Franklin stands at the confluence of the Little Tennessee River and the Cullasaja River, a key mountain crossroads in the Cowee Mountains. This Tennessee Valley Authority survey captures a landscape defined by small rural hubs like Higdonville and Gneiss, where social life centered on institutions such as Bethlehem Ch, Sloans Chapel, and Wells Grove Ch. The presence of the Nikwasi Indian Mound near the river reflects the deep history of the area, while the Porters Bend Dam creating Lake Emory shows the mid-century industrial utility of the waterways.
