1958 Map of Marion
USGS Topo · Published 1960About this map
Marion serves as the focal point of this late 1950s survey, situated along the Middle Fork Holston River and the transit corridor defined by the Norfolk and Western railway and Lee Highway. The town's institutional footprint is substantial, featuring the Southwestern State Hospital and Marion College. The landscape is notably shaped by state and federal land management, with Hungry Mother State Park to the north and the expansive Jefferson National Forest covering the high ridges of Pond Mountain. Rural life is detailed through numerous small community centers such as McMullin, Seven Mile Ford, and the remote Quebec settlement. Conservation and industry are represented by the Marion State Fish Hatchery and Buller Bass Hatchery, while the presence of Holston Mills and a rock quarry points to the local extraction and processing economy.
