1935 Map of Boyds Creek

About this map

The French Broad River snakes through the heart of this East Tennessee landscape, defining the rural character of the border between Knox and Sevier counties. In the mid-1930s, the river remained a primary geographical focus, featuring prominent crossings like Huffaker Ferry and numerous named bends such as Underwood Bend and Seclusion Bend. The map documents a dense network of country schools and churches that served these farming communities, including Highland View Sch, Boyds Creek Ch, and East Stony Point Sch.
