1935 Map of Swan Island

USGS Topo · Published 1935

About this map

The Clinch River meanders through a landscape of parallel ridges in Hancock County, defining the rural character of this pre-TVA era survey. The river served as a vital corridor, evidenced by several active crossing points such as Swan Island Ferry, Cloud Ferry, and Papaw Ferry, along with the Lawson Ford near Lawson Mill. These features reveal a community reliant on water-borne transit and local milling before modern bridge infrastructure dominated the region.
