About this map

The Cumberland Mountains and the winding course of Daddy Creek define this 1936 survey, which highlights the industrial and transportation corridors of the Tennessee highlands. The Tennessee Central Railroad cuts across the southern landscape, serving the established settlements of Crab Orchard and Ozone. This era shows a transition in travel, where the historic Old Walton Road and Tennessee State No 1 run parallel to newer routes like U S Highway No 70.

Smaller communities and rural landmarks are preserved in detail, including Waldensia and the isolated The Glades. Local history researchers will find several educational and spiritual centers, such as Pine Grove Sch, Center Sch, and the Antioch Cem near Watson. The presence of an Airway Beacon on Orchard Ridge and a lonely Oil Well in the northeast corner signal the early 20th-century modernization of this rugged terrain.
