1940 Map of Pattie Gap

USGS Topo · Published 1940

About this map

Paint Rock Ridge and Hurricane Ridge dictate the settlement patterns of this 1940 survey, where small communities and family farmsteads are tucked into the narrow valleys of East Tennessee. The landscape is defined by its social infrastructure, featuring a high density of rural institutions like the Compromise Sch and Salem Ch. The Tennessee Valley Authority's influence is evident in the precise mapping of boundaries across Roane and Loudon Counties, while local commerce is represented by sites like Morrison Store and the Cook Mill on Little Paint Rock Creek. Genealogical interest is found in numerous family-named landmarks, including the Fuller Cem and Mathis Cem, which dot the hillsides near Barnard Br and Stamp Creek. This era captures the area just as modern infrastructure began to weave through the gaps, such as the eponymous Pattie Gap.
