1982 Map of Crossville

About this map

Crossville serves as the central hub of this Cumberland County landscape, where the Southern Railway and Seaboard System tracks intersect amidst a growing network of residential developments and civic institutions. The map reveals a transition from traditional crossroads like Baker Crossroads and Dykes Crossroads to modern leisure and residential planning, exemplified by Lake Tansi Village and the recreation areas of Cumberland Mountain State Park. The terrain is defined by the Tennessee Divide, which influences the drainage of numerous water bodies including Lake Holiday and Meadow Park Lake. Genealogists will find a wealth of family history sites, from the Baisley Cem near Grace Ch in the north to Swan Cem in the south, reflecting the deep-rooted settlement patterns of the Cumberland Plateau during the early 1980s.
