1942 Map of Howard Quarter

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The Clinch River snakes through the heart of this landscape, its tight meanders carving deep bends like Lee Bend and Posey Bend as it flows toward the rising waters of the Norris Reservoir. This 1942 field examination captures the rural character of the borderlands between Claiborne, Hancock, and Grainger counties, where settlement is defined by the narrow valleys of Little Sycamore Creek and Indian Creek. Community life is anchored by a network of small country schools and churches, including Howard Quarter Sch, Caney Valley Sch, and the Seal Chapel.
