1946 Map of Savage Point

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Dunlap sits at the edge of the Sequatchie Valley, serving as a gateway between the valley floor and the high Cumberland Plateau. This 1946 field examination, revised in the 1960s, documents the rural infrastructure of the region, where the William Howard Taft Highway parallels the valley walls. The upland landscape is defined by family-named landmarks and essential community institutions, including Mt Pleasant Ch, Yellow Springs Ch, and the Lands Chapel Cem. Remote outposts like the Lookout Tower on Price Mountain oversee a terrain deeply incised by drainages such as Big Brush Creek and Savage Creek. In the plateau's interior, small settlements like Cagle and scattered school sites like Sequatchie County High Sch highlight the dispersed nature of mid-century life in this part of Tennessee.
