1983 Map of Tunnel Hill

Rural life in the early 1980s is well-documented through numerous small community centers like Trickum and Mt Vernon. The map is particularly useful for genealogical research, identifying local landmarks such as Hickory Grove Ch, Dogwood Cem, and Dedmon Cem. While much of the eastern and western edges are protected within the Chattahoochee National Forest, the central valleys along East Chickamauga Creek and Mill Creek show the established network of farms, schools, and homesteads that characterize the region's heritage.
