1939 Map of Burem

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

The Holston River carves a dramatic path through this section of Hawkins County, defining a landscape of tight ridges and agricultural valleys. Near Burem, the Burem Bridge provides a vital crossing point, while the Southern railway tracks follow the river's southern bank through Bussels Bend. The region is marked by a dense network of early rural institutions, including the Alumwell Academy in the northwest and the Hennard Mill on Sweetwater Br. One of the most distinctive natural landmarks is the Ebbing and Flowing Spring, located north of Amis. This 1939 field examination reveals a well-established pattern of small communities like Petersburg and Guntown nestled between the Valley Knobs and Hickory Valley, connected by local routes and the prominent Lee Highway.
