About this map

Little Tennessee River winds through the heart of this 1935 survey, a period when ferries still served as vital crossings before the large-scale impoundments of the Tennessee Valley Authority altered the valley. The landscape is defined by the steep slopes of Chilhowee Mountain and Short Mountain, with settlement concentrated along the fertile banks and creek bottoms. This map captures the social fabric of rural Blount and Monroe counties through its numerous country schools like Nelson Sch and Kagley Sch, and spiritual centers such as McMurray Chapel and the Lower Chilhowee Ch.
