About this map

The North Fork Holston River winds through the southern reaches of this Scott County landscape, shadowed by the prominent ridge of Clinch Mountain. In the mid-1930s, the rural economy of this region was anchored by local milling operations such as McConnells Mill and the Holston River Mill, while the Southern railroad provided vital transportation through the valley floor. The map documents a dense network of mountain communities centered around landmarks like Dortons Fort and Nicklesville.
