2013 Map of Peachtree

About this map

Brasstown and Peachtree anchor this survey of western North Carolina, where the Valley River and its numerous tributaries cut through a landscape of named knobs and coves. The settlement pattern reflects a long-standing agricultural and milling heritage, with landmarks like Arrowood Mill and Jones Mill situated near Peachtree Cr. The presence of Shallow Ford Bridge and various bottomlands such as Harshaw Bottom and Suddawig Bottom highlights how early transport and farming routes followed the natural drainage of the Hiwassee River basin. Genealogists and local historians will find value in the network of family-named roads and features, including Greenlawn Cemetery Rd and the small communities of Mission and Ogden. The map documents a rural transition where traditional names like Mumblehead Top and Poorhouse Mountain persist alongside modern local connectors.
