2013 Map of Henson Gap

About this map

Lewis Chapel and the small settlement at Stewart Camp anchor the eastern reaches of the Cumberland Plateau in this 2012 survey. The landscape is defined by its deep gaps and high ridges, including the prominent Henson Gap and Cowpen Gap which channel local travel through the complex terrain. The drainage patterns are clearly defined, with Soddy Cr and N Chickamauga Cr flowing through the southern and eastern sectors, while the Sequatchie River appears in the northwest corner. Numerous family-named landmarks and infrastructure such as Barker Pounds, Corncrib Knob, and Davis Cemetery Rd offer specific points of interest for genealogists and local historians tracing the development of this area. The road network, including the Old York Hwy E, reveals the evolution of transport through these Tennessee highlands.
