About this map

The Norfolk and Western Railway winds through the high-elevation gaps of this 1930s borderland where Virginia, Tennessee, and North Carolina meet. This era in the Jefferson National Forest is defined by the proximity of remote mountain settlements to early industrial transport, with communities like Konnarock and Taylors Valley linked by rail and the winding Lee Highway. The map captures a moment when rural educational and spiritual centers served these peaks, including the Konnarock Girls Sch and several country churches like Lebanon Ch.
