Please note: The information below is from the Russ Calhoun Collection located at the Archives of Appalachia. The rights were transferred from Russ Calhoun to the Archives in 1994. These are public records that are already available through the Atlanta Branch of the National Archives.
The names below are those families that were surveyed by the TVA in preparation for the clearing out of the land in what is now known as “Old Butler”, which is now located under water. Information includes family names, where they lived before they relocated, their family members, ages (and year of birth give it or take 1 year; please note: surveys were taken in 1942 when the ages were recorded), where they located, and other information that may help in gaining more information for family genologists.
Note bold, italics, and underlined as follows:
Family name by head of household as mentioned in survey (note, if another bold name is in the family information, the information for the extra bolded name is also included in the survey)
Family names in each home surveyed
Places of businesses
Communities
*** – There is extra information in the survey the family may be interested in. In order to respect privacy, it is in the best interest of the families involved to seek out this information by coming into the Archives of Appalachia or contacting the Atlanta Branch of the National Archives.
Please note this is a work in progress and will be added in alphabetic order (unless you are seeking a particular name from the list). Fill free to contact me if you have any questions.
