1953 Map of Wildwood

About this map

Little River winds through this Tennessee landscape at the base of Chilhowee Mountain, defining the settlement patterns of a rural region spanning Knox, Blount, and Sevier counties. The map reveals a dense network of community life established long before the 1952 field checks, anchored by numerous country churches such as Eusebia Church and Keeble Chapel. Educational roots are visible in landmarks like Klondike School and the Old Chilhowee School, which highlight the decentralized nature of early mountain communities.
