About this map

Powell Valley serves as the central corridor for this 2019 survey of Campbell County, Tennessee, where the steep rises of Cumberland Mountain and Walden Ridge frame a landscape of historical settlements and modern infrastructure. The community of Jacksboro sits at the heart of the map, flanked by La Follette to the northeast and Caryville to the southwest. This area is defined by its complex topography, including notable features like Eagle Bluff and the narrow passage at Bruce Gap.

Genealogists will find a high density of burial sites across the valley, such as Jacksboro City Cem, the Poor Farm Cem, and the Woodlawn Cem. Transportation history is well-represented, from the Norfolk Southern railway lines to the Indian Grave Tunnel. Natural features like Cove Lake and the rugged Cumberland Trail offer a look at the region's transition from an industrial coal-and-rail hub to a center for outdoor recreation and regional aviation at the Campbell County Airport.
