1957 Map of Tellico Plains
USGS Topo · Published 1959About this map
Tellico Plains serves as the focal point for this survey, situated where the Tellico River and Tellico Lake meet the steep rise of the Unicoi Mtns. The mapping reflects a mountain economy transitioning between agriculture and timber within the Cherokee National Forest. To the southwest, Rural Vale and its Conasauga Mill on the Conasauga Creek illustrate the era's small-scale water-powered industry, while the Louisville & Nashville RR corridor indicates the town's role as a logistical hub for the surrounding ridges.
