1940 Map of Whittier
USGS Topo · Published 1940About this map
The Qualla Boundary and the Cherokee Indian Reservation dominate this 1940 survey of the western North Carolina mountains. The Oconaluftee River meets the Tuckasegee River near Whittier, creating a valley corridor shared by the Southern railroad and several mountain settlements. This landscape is a dense network of Cherokee history and Appalachian genealogy, including the Cherokee Indian Sch and the Cherokee township.
