1952 Map of Demory

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The waters of Norris Lake define this mid-century landscape where the Clinch River and Powell River meet. This survey shows the region as it transitioned into a major recreational and conservation hub following the creation of the Tennessee Valley Authority reservoirs. The complex shoreline is dotted with development like the Heatherly Point Cabin Area and Shanghai Dock, alongside established small communities such as Demory and Fordtown. Genealogists will find a significant density of family burial grounds, including Baker Forge Memorial Cemetery, Grantaboro Cemetery, and Sharp Cemetery, many situated on the ridges overlooking the flooded valleys. The eastern portion of the sheet is dominated by the Chuck Swan Wildlife Management Area, preserving a large tract of woodland between the river forks.
