1946 Map of Prentiss

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The Little Tennessee River winds through the eastern edge of this 1946 terrain, defining a valley of small settlements and agriculture adjacent to the high peaks of the Nantahala National Forest. The map documents a landscape where industrial water power was still visible at Addington Mill, McClure Mill, and McDonald Mill. Higher elevations are dominated by the Appalachian Trail as it crosses over Albert Mtn and through Bigspring Gap. Significant scientific development is noted at the Coweeta Experiment Station, established in the 1930s to study forest hydrology. Local life is centered around rural junctions like Prentiss, Otto, and Skeenah, supported by numerous community landmarks such as Allison-Watts Sch, Newman Chapel, and Calvary Ch.
