1936 Map of Ovoca

About this map

The Ovoca Orphans Home and the adjacent Ovoca Lake serve as a central landmark in this 1936 Tennessee Valley Authority survey of the Coffee County area. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Duck River, which is traversable at numerous named crossing points including Beckman Ford, Richardson Ford, and Waite Ford. These fords, alongside a dense network of country schools such as Fourth Model Sch and Flower Town Sch, reveal a rural society still deeply reliant on local water crossings and neighborhood-level institutions before the widespread modernization of the mid-20th century.
