1947 Map of Lake Toccoa

USGS Topo · Published 1947

About this map

The Toccoa River winds through the heart of the Chattahoochee National Forest on this 1947 survey, just as the Lake Toccoa reservoir had established its modern shoreline. This period shows a landscape defined by the Blue Ridge Divide and the busy corridor of the Louisville and Nashville railroad. Rural life is anchored by community landmarks such as Cherrylog Sch and the Snake Nation Sch, while the economic history of the area is visible in local milling operations like Elrod Mill, Ballew Mill, and Stewart Mill. A notable crossing is recorded at the Shallowford Bridge, providing a specific data point for local historians tracing old river crossings and road networks in Fannin and Gilmer counties.
