1949 Map of Hustburg

About this map

The Tennessee River and the expansive Kentucky Lake dominate this mid-century landscape in Humphreys County, where the Tennessee Valley Authority’s influence is clearly visible in the extensive Dewatering Area and Upper Big Bottom wetlands. The map documents a period of transition for riverfront communities such as Trotters Landing and Sycamore Landing, which served as vital points of contact before the creation of the reservoir altered the shoreline. Inland, the settlement at Hustburg is anchored by the Ebenezer Ch, while the eastern hills are dotted with family burial grounds including the Cude Cem, Walker Cem, and Jones Cem. The presence of the Tennessee National Migratory Wildlife Refuge underscores the conservation efforts in the Lower Big Bottom area, where Clear Lake Drain and Briar Creek meander through the protected river flats.
