1938 Map of Doe

About this map

Iron Mountains and Doe Mountain dominate this corner of East Tennessee, where the Cherokee National Forest and Kettlefoot Wildlife Management Area preserve a landscape of steep ridges and narrow hollows. The settlement pattern is largely confined to the valleys of Doe Creek and Roan Creek, where small communities like Pandora, Doe Valley, and Doeville took root. The map records a shift in industrial infrastructure, notably marking a Dismantled Railroad that once traced the path of Roan Creek toward the reservoir.
