1936 Map of Grant
USGS Topo · Published 1936About this map
Paint Rock River winds through the heart of this landscape, its path punctuated by historical crossing points like Hellum Ford, Maple Ford, and Fishtrap Ford. The 1936 landscape is characterized by a dense network of local education and faith, featuring numerous country schoolhouses such as Poplar Ridge Sch, Rockdale Sch, and the DAR Sch near the settlement of Grant. To the south, the influence of the Tennessee Valley Authority is visible in the early footprint of the Wheeler Reservoir, which begins to reshape the terrain along Pond Creek. Industry is represented by Butlers Mill on the river, while family and community history is anchored by the Kennamer Cem and Bethel Cem. High ground at Keel Mtn and Gunter Mountain frames the valley, defining the rural character of the Jackson, Madison, and Marshall county borderlands.
