1940 Map of Robbinsville

About this map

Robbinsville serves as the focal point of this Graham County landscape, where the confluence of Tulula Creek and the Cheoah River meets the expansive waters of Santeetlah Lake. The 1940 data, supplemented by 1970s aerial revisions, documents a region defined by its complex mountain gaps and tight-knit rural institutions. Genealogists and historians will find significant detail regarding the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians, with markers for land tracts and the Snowbird Cherokee Indian Sch near Zion Hill Ch. The geography is characterized by the Snowbird Mountains and Cheoah Mountains, connected by numerous passes like Highland Gap and Snowbird Gap. Cultural sites including Massey Cem and Mountain Creek Sch are dispersed throughout the Nantahala National Forest, while the Teyahalee Bald Lookout Tower overlooks the southern ridges.
