About this map

The South Fork Cumberland River carves a deep path through the northern reaches of the Cumberland National Forest, defining the rugged borderlands of Tennessee and Kentucky. This mid-century survey reveals a landscape of isolated mountain communities connected by narrow ridges and winding creek beds. Genealogists can locate family landmarks such as Terry Cem and Slavens Cem, situated near high points like Hatfield Ridge and Chestnut Ridge. The map documents the rural infrastructure of the era, including No Business Sch and Station Camp Sch, which served families along the No Business Creek and Station Camp Creek drainages. Evidence of resource extraction is visible through scattered Oil Wells, while notable terrain features like Big Island and Burke Knob anchor the topography.
