About this map

The Cumberland Plateau during the late 1930s reveals a landscape undergoing significant federal transformation. This survey captures the development of Cumberland Homesteads, a New Deal-era subsistence farming community marked by structured residential clusters and the Homestead Sch. The Tennessee Central Railroad and U S Highway No 70 run parallel through the northern corridor, connecting the settlements of Dorton and Crab Orchard.
