About this map

Norris Lake and its intricate shoreline dominate the landscape of Campbell County, where the Powell River and Clinch River converge. This 2022 survey captures the modern topography of a region defined by its narrow ridges and deep hollows, such as Stillhouse Hollow and Willoughby Hollow. The settlement pattern follows the high ground and valley floors, with Demory and Grantsboro serving as central points among a network of smaller communities like Ffordtown and Alder Springs.

Genealogists will find a wealth of burial sites including Baker Forge Memorial Cem and Stooksbury Cem, reflecting the deep familial roots in the Cumberland Mountains area. The map also highlights the transition from traditional land use to recreation and modern infrastructure, shown through the Deerfield Resort Airport and the protected Cove Creek Wildlife area, alongside landmarks like Tanbark Knob and High Knob.
