1950 Map of Orme
USGS Topo · Published 1950About this map
The town of Orme and the high ridges of Cumberland Mountain define this 1950 topographical study, capturing a landscape deeply shaped by its geology and early 20th-century travel routes. The Dixie Highway cuts through the northeast corner along Battle Creek, providing a stark contrast to the winding tracks that lead into isolated valleys like Sweden Cove and Beene Cove. The settlement pattern follows these natural coves, where local life centered around institutions such as the Sweden Cove School and Lous Chapel.
