About this map

The Tennessee River dominates the eastern landscape of this 2010 quadrangle, where industry and traditional riverfront landings meet. Industrial operations are central to the local economy near the Counce post office, evidenced by the Tennessee River Pulp and Paper Company West Dam and the associated Tennessee River Pulp and Paper West Lake. Historically significant river access points like Hamburg Landing and Griscoms Landing line the banks, while Big Bend Shoals indicates the natural river character before modern navigational changes.

Genealogists will find a high density of family and community burial grounds, including Childers Hill Cemetery, Beshears Cemetery, and Pisgah Cemetery. The terrain is marked by notable features such as Pisgah Hill and Hindman Bottom along Lick Creek, reflecting a landscape deeply tied to its watercourses. Secondary roads like Federal Rd and Woodstown Loop connect these rural settlements, providing a clear picture of the region's development into the 21st century.
