1949 Map of Hulaco

About this map

The Tennessee Valley Divide snakes through this 1949 survey, marking a significant hydrologic boundary where the topography shifts from the headwaters of Wolf Creek and Berry Creek toward the northern drainages. This high ground is populated by a network of rural communities and church-centered settlements, including Joppa, Hulaco, and Ryan Crossroads. The map highlights the social fabric of the era through numerous rural institutions such as Ruth Sch and Hulaco Sch, alongside congregational hubs like Mt Hermon Church and Pleasant Ridge Church.
