1942 Map of Howard Quarter

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Clinch River meanders through the heart of this landscape, forming dramatic oxbows at The Narrows, Posey Bend, and Lee Bend. This 1942 Tennessee Valley Authority survey, updated with 1971 aerial data, documents a rural Appalachian community organized around the creek valleys and parallel ridges like Powell Mountain and Newman Ridge. The settlement at Howard Quarter and the smaller South cluster are connected by a network of roads including the Dixie Highway, which follows the base of Copper Ridge.
