1976 Map of Daisy

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Chickamauga Lake and the Tennessee River dominate the eastern landscape of this 1970s survey, illustrating the significant residential expansion following the Tennessee Valley Authority’s mid-century water management projects. The map captures the suburbanization of Hamilton County, where established communities like Daisy and Hixson are joined by newer developments such as Middle Valley Estates and Lakeshore Estates. The area is geographically defined by the Cumberland Escarpment and Walden Ridge to the west, with the Southern Railway corridor following the valley floor near Dayton Pike. Local history is deeply embedded in the terrain, from the strip mine operations near Grasshopper Hill to numerous family burial grounds like Shadwick Cem and Walker Cem. The map reveals a transition from an industrial and agricultural past—evidenced by Greens Mill and Olde Mill—toward a recreation-oriented economy centered on Harrison Bay State Park and Dallas Bay Skypark.
