1953 Map of Wear Cove

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

Tuckaleechee and the neighboring settlement of Townsend serve as the western gateway to the high ridges of the Smokies in this mid-century survey. The landscape is defined by the steep transition from the valley floor up to the heights of Bates Mountain and Meigs Mountain. The mapping reveals a community deeply rooted in the land, with numerous family-named landmarks and cemeteries such as Brickey Cemetery, Myers Cemetery, and Hatcher Cemetery scattered throughout the coves.
