1956 Map of Melvine

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The Sequatchie Valley forms a striking corridor through the Cumberland Plateau in this mid-century survey, dividing the landscape between the sharp Escarpment and the rising heights of Walden Ridge. Small rural communities such as Litton and Melvine serve as focal points for the valley floor, where the Sequatchie River and its tributaries like Mill Creek supported a network of farms and homes. The map reveals a deeply rooted social landscape, marked by a high density of family and community burial grounds, including the Tollett Cem, Walker Cem, and Smyrna Cem.
