About this map

The Barren Fork Divide defines the upper reaches of Coffee County, where headwater streams like Goose Pond Creek and Welker Branch begin their descent. Near the southern edge of the sheet, the City Boundary of Manchester touches the Duck River, indicating the northward expansion of the town during the mid-20th century. This area is characterized by a dense network of family cemeteries and rural congregations, including Lumley Stand Ch and Patmos Chapel, which served the scattered farming communities on the Greenbrier Flat.
