1935 Map of Tunnel Hill
USGS Topo · Published 1935About this map
Chetoogeta Mountain Tunnel serves as the centerpiece of this 1935 landscape, where the engineering of the St Louis and San Francisco RR pierces the barrier of Tunnel Hill Ridge. The map documents a rural network of ridges and valleys defined by small agrarian communities and crossroads such as Tunnel Hill and Trickum. The Tennessee Valley Authority, under chairman Arthur E. Morgan, provides an intricate view of early 20th-century Georgia before the widespread consolidation of local institutions. Dozens of small landmarks are visible, from the Airway Beacon on Rocky Face Mountain to family-linked sites like Foster Cem and rural spiritual hubs including Mt Salem Ch and Dunnidin Ch. The proximity of the Nashville and Chattanooga Highway highlights the era's emerging automobile infrastructure alongside long-established features like Mill Creek Gap.
