Drawn in 1861, as the Carolinas were leaving the Union, this Johnson map shows a region whose western edge rises into the Great Smoky Mountains, the range that forms much of the North Carolina and Tennessee border. Maps of this period were often assembled from older surveys and rough reports, so the high country appears in far less detail than the coast and the river valleys. It is worth reading for its political boundaries and the routes between towns, as well as for what it reveals about how little of the mountain interior was mapped with precision at the time.
