1946 Map of Flat Rock

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Flat Rock serves as the central hub of this 1946 Tennessee Valley Authority field examination, set atop the plateau of Sand Mountain in Jackson County. The landscape is defined by deep incisions like Griffin Gulf and Musgrove Gulf, where watercourses such as Bryant Creek and Long Creek have carved significant terrain features. The survey highlights a resilient network of rural institutions, from the Christian Home and Liberty Hill Ch to smaller meeting houses like Beulah Chapel. Transportation at mid-century followed the winding Caperton Ferry Road, connecting isolated homesteads to the river valley beyond the bluff line. Genealogists will find a wealth of family landmarks including Maxwell Cem, Swafford Cem, and Pritchett Cem, which anchor the local history of this agricultural community just after the war.
