1936 Map of Topsy

USGS Topo · Published 1936

About this map

The Buffalo River snakes through the central hills of Wayne County in this 1930s survey, defining a landscape where travel relied heavily on river crossings like Carey Ford and Meredith Ford. The tiny settlement of Topsy serves as a central point for a rural community characterized by small family-named hollows and isolated schoolhouses, including the Topsy Sch and Morrow Valley Sch. The presence of the Tennessee Electric Power Company transmission line cutting across the northern reaches indicates the early infrastructure shifts of the Tennessee Valley Authority era.
