About this map

Clinch River valley communities serve as the anchors for this 1914–1915 survey, where the Norfolk and Western railway follows the river's path to connect industrial and residential hubs. The map reveals a landscape defined by sharp elevation changes, particularly around Kent Ridge and the Pistol Gap. Local education is prominently marked through a network of rural schoolhouses, including Hale School, Lane School, and Drill School, which were essential centers for the scattered mountain settlements during this era.
