1954 Map of Norma

About this map

The New River carves a winding path through the Cumberland Plateau on this map, serving as the central artery for the timber and coal operations in Scott County. High ridges like Cordell Mountain and Day Mountain overlook a landscape transitioning into a mid-century industrial era, where the Tennessee railroad line connects riverside settlements including Norma and Winona. The presence of several Strip Mines and the Lone Min near the Campbell County line illustrates the heavy reliance on extraction during the 1950s. Family history is deeply rooted here, evidenced by several small plots such as the Rector Cem and Rob Sexton Cem. Along the creek bottoms, communities were anchored by institutions like the Smoky Creek Sch and Mill Branch Ch, while Lookout Tower No 16 on Signal Mtn stood watch over the heavily forested peaks.
