1953 Map of Wildwood

About this map

Bays Mountain and the high ridges of Chilhowee Mountain frame a landscape of tight-knit rural communities along the Little River and its tributaries. The settlement at Wildwood serves as a central hub, surrounded by a dense network of country churches and family burial grounds that reflect the deep-rooted social fabric of mid-century Blount County. Notable spiritual centers like Eusebia Church, Bethel Church, and Union Temple are dotted across the ridges and valleys, alongside local educational landmarks such as the Klondike School.
