1960 Map of Grayson

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Grayson sits at the heart of this 1960 survey, a small settlement surrounded by the managed wilds of the William B Bankhead National Forest. This landscape is defined by its conservation history and the deep drainages of the Sipsey River and Brushy Creek. The map documents a community deeply connected to its environment, shown through the presence of several country churches such as the Church of the Forest and Pine Torch Ch. The topography reveals the Tennessee Valley Divide snaking through the northern section, separating the waters that flow toward the Tennessee River from those heading south. Genealogists will find significant value in the numerous family cemeteries recorded across the hills, including McLemore Cem, Tapsville Cem, and Bunyan Hill Cem, often located near now-restricted motorways and forest roads like Cheatham Road.
