2019 Map of Eagan

About this map

Clairfield and Eagan sit along the winding drainage of Clear Fork, marking a corridor of settlement where the Kentucky and Tennessee state line cuts across the high ridges of the Log Mountains. This 2019 survey documents the complex topography of the Cumberland Plateau, where coal mining and timber historically shaped the development of communities like Fonde, Pruden, and Marion. The map captures the remote character of the borderlands, showing numerous hollows and gaps such as Hatfield Gap and Morgan Hollow. Local history is preserved in the location of several family burial grounds, including Partin Cem, King Cem, and Bostica Cem. These features, along with named summits like Cumberland Mountain and Rich Mtn, provide a detailed view of the rugged geography that defines the border between Bell, Whitley, Campbell, and Claiborne counties.
