About this map

Lookout Mountain dominates the eastern half of this terrain, where the Chickamauga and Chattanooga National Military Park preserves significant Civil War history. The map covers a complex border region where Tennessee, Georgia, and Alabama nearly meet, centered on the broad Lookout Valley and the smaller settlements of Hooker, Wildwood, and New England. The topography is defined by high ridges and deep hollows like Pulltight Hollow and Egypt Hollow, separated by gaps such as Windy Gap and Tarkiln Gap.

Transport and water resources are vital to this corridor, with Lookout Creek winding through the valley floor near the Lookout Mountain Airport. Numerous springs, including Aetna Spring and Keef Spring, dot the landscape. Long-standing family names are preserved through a high density of small burial grounds such as Haswell Cem, Ray Cem, and Price Cem, providing essential data for those tracing local lineages in the Trenton and Morganville vicinity.
