1936 Map of Grassy Cove

USGS Topo · Published 1936

About this map

Grassy Cove dominates this 1936 survey, appearing as a distinct limestone karst landscape where the drainage of Grassy Cove Creek disappears into the subterranean reaches of Cumberland Mountain. This depression in the Cumberland Plateau created a unique agricultural pocket served by the State Highway No 68, with the central settlement featuring a Cem and local residences. To the south and west, the terrain rises sharply toward Hinch Mtn and Dorton Knob, marking the boundary between Cumberland and Bledsoe counties. Smaller communities and rural landmarks such as Linary in the northwest and Happy Top near the southern border reflect the dispersed nature of mountain life during the mid-1930s. Notable institutions like the Jewett Ch, Linary Sch, and Alloway Sch are precisely located, providing essential data for genealogists tracing family roots in this corner of the plateau.
