1947 Map of New Hope
USGS Topo · Published 1964About this map
Owens Cross Roads and New Hope anchor this 1947 landscape where the Tennessee Valley Authority’s influence is evident along the Wheeler Lake shoreline. The settlement pattern follows the valley floors between prominent elevations like Green Mountain and Keel Mountain, with small communities such as Elon and Oak Grove connected by a network of rural roads and river crossings. This survey captures a specific social geography through its dense recording of country churches and family burial grounds, including Baker Cem, Vann Cem, and Buggs Chapel.
