About this map

Tennga and the Cisco settlement anchor this 2011 survey of the Georgia-Tennessee borderlands. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Conasauga River and a series of prominent peaks and gaps, including Iron Mountain and Peaky Top. This area reflects a quiet rural character where local services like the Tennga Post Office and Cisco Post Office remain central to the community's footprint.

Transport and topography dictate the layout of the region, from the high ridges of Doogan Mountain to the small-scale aviation at Rostex Airport. Researchers can trace the network of mountain branches like Mooneyham Branch and Baker Pole Branch as they feed into the larger river system. Historic place names such as Cohutta Springs and Gryder Camp provide valuable points of reference for those studying the genealogical and geographic development of Murray County near the state line.
