1952 Map of Petros

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Petros serves as the focal point of this 1952 landscape, dominated by the imposing presence of the Brushy Mountain State Prison and its associated Brushy Mountain State Prison Cemetery. The topography is defined by the steep rises of Little Brushy Mountain and Frozen Head Mountain, much of which is contained within the Morgan State Forest. The settlement pattern follows the narrow valleys of Crooked Fork and the Emory River, where mining operations and rail access via the Southern railroad shaped local life.
