1958 Map of Daisy

About this map

Chickamauga Lake and the winding Tennessee River define the eastern reach of this 1958 Tennessee Valley Authority survey, illustrating a landscape transformed by mid-century water management. The community of Daisy sits at the foot of the Walden Ridge and the dramatic Cumberland Escarpment, while Hixson serves as a hub further south along the Southern Railway. The map captures a transitional era of suburban growth and recreation, featuring the developing Bartlebaugh Subdivision alongside established summer destinations like Camp Columbus and Camp Dixie. Local industry and infrastructure are represented by landmarks such as Greens Mill, a Substation, and a Drag Strip near Middle Valley. For genealogists, the sheet is exceptionally detailed, recording numerous family burial grounds including the Foster Hixson Cem, Hensley Cem, and the Johnson Cem, alongside community landmarks like Burks Chapel and New Salem Ch.
