2013 Map of Crawford

About this map

The W Fork Obey River carves a deep path through this portion of the Cumberland Plateau, anchoring a series of small Tennessee settlements including Allred, Shiloh, and Crawford. The landscape is defined by its dramatic relief, where narrow hollows like Solomon Hollow and Katy Hollow sit thousands of feet below prominent heights such as Alpine Mountain and Stout Mountain. This 2013 topographic survey captures the intricate network of rural roads that navigate these ridges, from the winding Hickory Flat Rd to the secluded Pioneer Trail Ln. The settlement pattern follows the drainage of the river and its many tributaries, such as Big Laurel Cr and Little Indian Cr, where family-named landmarks like Norrod Hollow and Obe Lee Hollow point to a deep-rooted history of local land ownership. This survey provides a modern spatial context for the small communities of Twinton and Windletown, showing how the geography continues to shape the character of Overton County.
