2010 Map of Blaine

About this map

Blaine and the surrounding rural communities of Lawrence County sit at the heart of an intricate network of waterways like Blaine Creek and the southern reaches of Yatesville Lake. The landscape is defined by its deep hollows and high points, most notably Cherokee Hill and the Clevinger Knob Lookout Tower near Overda. This 2010 survey reflects a region where family lineage and local history are etched into the terrain through numerous small burial grounds, including the Griffith Cemetery at Blaine and the Adams Cemetery near Dead Horse Hollow. The road network follows the natural contours of the land, with routes like Arrington Branch Rd and Irish Creek Rd connecting isolated settlements such as Houckville and Cordell. The presence of landmarks like The Narrows and Orchard Hollow indicates a geography that has dictated the pattern of local travel and agriculture for generations.
