About this map

Baileyton sits at the intersection of the Horton Hwy and Van Hill Rd, serving as a central hub for the small communities and agricultural lands of northern Greene County. This landscape is defined by the ridge-and-valley topography of the Appalachians, where the boundary between Hawkins Co and Greene Co follows the high crests of Bays Mountain and Stone Mtn. These ridges separate drainage basins like Butcher Valley and Keller Hollow from the broader valley floor to the south.

Local history is preserved in the numerous named settlements such as Locust Springs, Newmansville, and Ottway, which are interspersed with family-named landmarks like Babbs Mill and Holland Mill. Genealogical value is found in rural burial grounds including Bailey Cem and the Caney Creek Cem. The transition from historic farmsteads to modern development is visible near Lakeview Estates Lake, while the enduring presence of Millers Chapel reflects the area's long-standing community centers.
