1941 Map of Culberson

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The Louisville and Nashville railroad carves through the northern borderlands of Georgia and North Carolina, following the South Fork Rapier Mill Creek toward the village of Culberson. This 1941 survey captures a landscape of small agricultural communities and family-named landmarks just as the Tennessee Valley Authority was reshaping the region. In the southern portion of the map, the settlement of Morganton sits near Hemptown Creek, surrounded by a high density of rural institutions like Bethel Ch and the Hemp Sch. Local industry is evidenced by numerous water-powered sites such as Forge Mill, Sparks Mill, and Mashburn Mill. The presence of Paris Cem and numerous country churches, including Jerusalem Ch and Long Chapel, offers significant value for genealogists tracing families in the Blue Ridge foothills.
