1956 Map of Melvine

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

The Sequatchie Valley carves a deep linear trough through this portion of the Cumberland Plateau, creating a landscape defined by sharp elevation shifts along the Cumberland Escarpment. The valley floor is dotted with small rural hubs like Melvine, Litton, and Ninemile, where settlement patterns follow the Sequatchie River and the Alvin C York Highway. The map reveals a dense network of family-named landmarks and community institutions, including Patton Sch and churches such as Swafford Chapel and Red Hill Ch.
