1938 Map of Doe

About this map

Iron Mountains and Doe Mountains converge in this high-altitude corner of Johnson and Carter counties, where the Cherokee National Forest dominates the landscape. The settlement of Little Doe serves as a small hub near Doe Valley Ch and Doe Valley Sch, while the scattered communities of Pandora and Doeville follow the winding paths of Little Doe Creek and Doe Creek. In the southern reaches of the quadrangle, the Southern railroad line tracks along the banks of Roan Creek near Doe Station. This 1938 survey documents a way of life deeply tied to the terrain, marked by family-named hollows and landmarks like Chimney Rock. Social centers are clearly defined by local institutions such as Dyson Grove Ch, Bethel Sch, and cemeteries like Campbell Cem, providing essential markers for genealogical research in this mountain region.
