Euchee, Tennessee

The post office closed in 1935 as TVA was buying up the land needed for the new reservoir.

Construction of the dam began in 1939 after all properties including the old Euchee Post Office had been demolished to make room for the reservoir.

The post office wasn't the only building demolished, an old school, ferry crossing and some homes were torn down in the Euchee community to make way for the TVA reservoir waters.

Today all that is left of what was Euchee is a campground and resort on the remaining peninsula of higher ground that wasn't inundated by Watts Bar Lake.

Euchee today is part of the Ten Mile community and zip code of 37880.
