1947 Map of Dougherty Gap

USGS Topo · Published 1947

About this map

Lookout Mountain and Pigeon Mountain dominate this 1947 landscape, separated by the dramatic gap for which this area is named. The terrain is defined by steep ridges and deep gulfs, such as Dougherty Gulf and Neal Gulf, which channel the flow of Gilreath Creek and other smaller branches. This post-war era survey highlights the sparse but established settlement patterns of the Broomtown Valley, where small communities like Teloga and Chelsea are anchored by local institutions including New Hope Ch and Teloga Sch.
