1939 Map of Mohawk

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Bulls Gap serves as a critical geographic pivot on this East Tennessee landscape, where the ridges of Raleigh Mountain and Bent Mountain converge at the intersection of Hawkins, Hamblen, and Greene counties. The Southern Railway dictates the settlement pattern, connecting the rail hub at the gap to the community of Mohawk and further east toward Midway. The lowlands are defined by the winding course of Lick Creek, which supports a dense network of rural infrastructure including Darrow Mill and numerous family-named landmarks. The 1971 photorevisions reveal the evolving agricultural landscape, noted by fine dashed lines representing field boundaries that overlay the original 1939 topography. This map is particularly dense with genealogical sites, from the Wright Cem and Crosby Cem to various rural educational centers like Beech Grove Sch and the Mc Donald Sch, reflecting the decentralized community structure of the mid-20th century.
