1952 Map of Wofford

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

Cumberland National Forest borders the western edge of this territory, where the Cumberland River carves deep, dramatic oxbows at Prewitt Bend and Croley Bend. The landscape is a complex of sharp ridges and hollows, home to numerous rural institutions like White Oak Mission Sch and Log Cabin Ch. The industrial and agricultural character of the early 1950s is evident in the Strip Mines appearing near Faber and the presence of the Gatliff State Fish Hatchery near the rail line. Transportation is anchored by the Louisville and Nashville railroad, which follows the river valley through Wofford toward Williamsburg. This survey captures a specific social geography, documenting a high density of small community centers such as Shiner Sch and Tidal Wave Ch before many were consolidated.
