1955 Map of Flat Gap
USGS Topo · Published 1974About this map
Pine Mountain and Black Mountain dominate this mid-century survey along the high ridge boundary between Kentucky and Virginia. The landscape is defined by the Tennessee-Virginia divide, where narrow hollows and creek beds provide the primary sites for small mountain settlements. In the center of the sheet, the community of Flat Gap serves as a local hub near Flat Gap Church and the Bolling Cem. The distribution of rural landmarks, such as Cane Patch Church near Gilley and Marthas Chapel near Dewey, reveals a social geography tied to these isolated valleys and gaps.
