1946 Map of Cullowhee
USGS Topo · Published 1947About this map
The Tuckasegee River winds through the heart of Jackson County, anchoring a landscape where the Southern railroad and mountain topography dictated the growth of several key communities. This 1946 field examination captures Cullowhee during a pivotal era for the Western Carolina Teachers College, showing the campus and surrounding settlement before its mid-century expansion. Further downriver, the county seat at Sylva and the neighboring Dillsboro serve as commercial hubs along the rail line, while Webster sits on the high ground overlooking the river's bend.
