1950 Map of Rockport

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

Kentucky Lake dominates the eastern half of this 1950s survey, representing the altered landscape following the impoundment of the Tennessee River. The shoreline is characterized by complex inlets like Birdsong Creek and Little Birdsong Creek, where the rising waters transformed former terrestrial valleys into aquatic habitats now managed as the Tennessee National Migratory Wildlife Refuge. These hydrological changes are further evidenced by the Camden Dewatering Area and its associated pump and pipeline infrastructure.
