About this map

The Cumberland River and Roaring River dictate the landscape of Jackson County in this mid-1920s survey. The county seat of Gainesboro serves as the hub of a river-centered economy, where the absence of bridges is marked by a series of critical crossings, including Gainesboro Ferry, Hicks Ferry, and Brooks Ferry. The terrain is deeply incised by family-named hollows like Gibson Hollow and Finchgut Hollow, which sheltered numerous small rural school districts such as Free State Sch, Hurricane Sch, and Willow Grove Sch.
