1940 Map of Proctor
USGS Topo · Published 1958About this map
The Proctor settlement and the CCC Camp NCNP 23 anchor the northern reaches of this landscape where the Great Smoky Mountains National Park meets the Nantahala National Forest. Recorded in 1940, the geography is defined by the transformation of the Little Tennessee River into Fontana Lake, with blue stippling indicating the areas soon to be submerged. This transitional moment captures the valley before the full impoundment of the water, showing the path of the Southern railroad and communities like Marcus, Wayside, and Dorsey along the river banks.
