2016 Map of Belvidere

About this map

Tims Ford Lake dominates the northern landscape of this Tennessee quadrangle, its intricate shoreline creating numerous points and bends like Fanning Bend, Shasteen Bend, and Acklen Bend. The terrain south of the water transitions into the sprawling wetlands of Mingo Swamp, where several water bodies including Mingo Pond and Glaus Pond are situated. This area is heavily marked by family history and genealogy, with a high density of small burial grounds such as Simmons Cem, Harris Chapel Cem, and the Pauper Cem located near Mitchells Bluff. Small rural communities and crossroads like Broadview, Belvidere, and Taylortown are connected by a network of local roads, while the Myers-Smith Airport sits at the northeastern edge near Estill Springs. The map reveals a landscape where modern recreation on the lake meets a long-established agricultural and community footprint.
