1972 Map of Soddy

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Walden Ridge and the Cumberland Escarpment define the topography of this Hamilton County region during the early 1970s. The landscape is a study in industrial and residential change, where numerous Strip mines and a Quarry sit adjacent to developing lakeside communities like Soddy Lake Heights on the shores of Chickamauga Lake. The settlement pattern follows the Southern Railway and Old Dayton Pike through Bakewell and Soddy-Daisy, while the high plateau to the west remains more dispersed, anchored by local institutions like Mowbray Ch and Mowbray Sch. Genealogists will find a wealth of family history preserved in the numerous upland burial grounds, including the Millsaps Cem, Hotwater Cem, and Granby Walker Cem. The map also captures the complex hydrology of the area, from the deep incisions of Bakewell Gulf to the winding course of Soddy Creek.
