UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR NATIONAL PARK SERVICE Jl/r.Cbas. S.G·rossman , Gatlinbur g, Tenn . Dear Charl es , Waynesville ,N.c. Oct. 7,1937 •. I wa s i n Catal oochee yesterday amd observed some of the buildi ngs t ha t we v;ere di s cussing in your office a few days a go , particul arl y the Jim Caldwell house and the Andy Valdwell house. The J im Cal dwell house, the main body, is a fine example of log const ruct i on , done ov e"r:· i nsi de and out with hand dressed yellow popl ar. At a l ater time a framed "L! was added. This too is good worknanshi p . I t i s a 2-story house, 2 fine rock chim-neys. Thi s bui ldinr; ha ~; been considerably abused, 2 of the mantles dovm sta irs hriVe been pri.sed loose,and evidently burned for fe.el. 3 por ch post s have been removed and I think used to make frames f or curinrs tobP. cco . Some of the ceiling in one of the up- s t a i rs r oan has bee n pried off evidently for the purpose of constructing t obacco f rs.mes or racke. . All the glass has been removed 1'rom the windows and door. rrhe Andy Caldwell house has not been abused very much, except t hat evidently people have been making fires ans carousing there , defa c i ng the walls with writing and tearing off paper. This hous e i n open and exposed. This is the house where Ranger Smith,until recently lived. I think both oC these buildings are quite essential to our purposes in this area,both being adjacent to t he proposed tourist camp. I t h i nk we should ask for special ranger protection on these a nd others that have not been markeO. for removal. I thi nk they should be locked,and placarded with suitable noti ces,and r angers asked togive as much protection as they can. Yours very truly, ;iec.J~ c ' •. ,., .,r h . v . ~ ilburn. _
Object’s are ‘parent’ level descriptions to ‘children’ items, (e.g. a book with pages).

This 156-acre tract 208 in Cataloochee was owned by James Caldwell. While, in general, the Great Smoky Mountains region was sparsely populated, the Cataloochee Valley remained an exception. By 1900, the population of Cataloochee had grown to 1,000 residents living in hundreds of log and frame homes. A few historic buildings have been preserved on site, including two churches, a school, several homes, and outbuildings. The North Carolina Park Commission was tasked with purchasing land for the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and people living in Cataloochee were among those displaced. Cataloochee families continue to return for annual reunions. In 2001, the National Park Service re-introduced elk into the valley.
