About this map

The John Sumach Reservation sits prominently along the state line in this 1936 survey, where the Cumberland Plateau drops into the deep coves of Jackson County. This landscape is defined by the winding paths of Little Crow Creek and Coon Creek, which provided the flat land necessary for small communities to take root before the mid-century. The map captures a rural economy revolving around local commerce and faith, evidenced by sites like Brisco Store, Wynn Store, and Centennial Ch. Educational life is well-documented through a network of small schoolhouses, including Pleasant Grove Sch and White House Sch. The presence of Allison Mill and several family burial grounds, such as Allen Cem and Longacre Cem, offers significant detail for those researching the early 20th-century settlement patterns of the Alabama-Tennessee borderlands.
