1936 Map of Boonshill

About this map

Elk River meanders through southern Lincoln County in this 1930s survey, defining a landscape of deep river bends including Hovey Bend, Caldwell Bend, and Pitts Bend. The rural economy of the era is evident in the Lincoln County Quarry and the Tep Co Power Plant near the settlement of Harms. An extensive network of country schools like Sheep Hill Sch and Hazeland Sch served the surrounding farming communities of Boonshill and East Cyruston. Local genealogy is well-documented through numerous family and church burial grounds, from the Sulphur Springs Cem in the north to the Phagan Cem near the river. Significant infrastructure including the Electric Trans Line and major thoroughfares like U S Highway No 64 illustrate the region's development during the Tennessee Valley Authority's early years of influence.
