1946 Map of Whitwell

About this map

The Cumberland Plateau dominates the western half of this landscape, its sharp escarpments dropping into the fertile basin of the Sequatchie River. In the mid-1940s, industrial activity centers on the Whitwell Mine and the rail corridors of the Louisville & Nashville and Nashville Chattanooga & St Louis railroads. These lines follow the valley floor, connecting the coal-rich heights to the agrarian settlements below.
