About this map

The high plateau of the Cumberland Plateau defines the landscape of this 1946 survey, where the Tennessee Valley Divide splits the headwaters of numerous creeks. Small settlements like Mayland and Campbell Junction serve as focal points along the transportation corridors, with an Old Railroad Grade and Pomona Road cutting across the terrain. Local history and genealogy are anchored by family landmarks such as Welch Cem, Rains Cem, and the oddly named The Cowpens in the south.

Water and industry are closely linked here, evidenced by a Tipple on Meadow Branch and the presence of Mayland Lake near Camp Nakanawa. The geography is marked by distinctive natural features like Stillhouse Rock Falls, Funnel Rock, and the Verble Knobs. This edition also includes late-20th-century aerial revisions, showing the evolution of the land use near the Golf Course and interstate Rest Areas.
