2022 Map of Burem

About this map

Hickory Cove and the Stanley Valley dominate this landscape, where the Holston River’s course is marked by expansive reaches of Cherokee Lake. The terrain is defined by a series of parallel ridges and hollows, including Miller Ridge and the Devils Nose Valley, which have historically dictated the placement of settlements like Rogersville and Burem. Local history is preserved in the numerous family burying grounds scattered across the countryside, such as Loonys Cem, Ward Cem, and Pearson Cem, reflecting generations of land stewardship.
