Abstract
The Wilson Dam was a major feat of hydroelectric power created by the Tennessee Authority (TVA) in the 1920s, in order to better serve the Tennessee Valley's power needs. It was constructed by the TVA and Army Corp of Engineers and is named after President Woodrow Wilson. The dam itself is located in Muscle Shoals, Alabama between Colbert and Lauderdale Counties, and is one of two in the North Alabama vicinity, the other being Wheeler Dam. The photographs illustrate the construction process of the dam.
Administrative/Biographical History
The Hardy Evans Collection was donated in 1969 by Mrs. W. H. Evans of Leighton, Alabama.
