1952 Map of Lake City

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The steep terrain of Walden Ridge and Vowell Mountain defines the landscape west of Lake City, where a legacy of intensive coal mining is etched into the topography. This mid-century survey documents the dense network of industrial settlements and family landmarks that populated the narrow valleys of Poplar Creek and the Clinch River. The map highlights the social fabric of these communities through numerous small churches like Willow Brook Church and schools such as Rush Strong School.
