About this map

Lake Cumberland dominates the eastern half of this landscape, its dendritic fingers reaching deep into the hills of Russell County. The intricate shoreline surrounds Lowgap Island and follows the winding paths of several tributaries including Lily Cr and Pumpkin Cr. This modern survey illustrates the proximity between the high ground of Jamestown and the expansive reservoir, reflecting the region's adaptation to the impounded Cumberland River.

Smaller settlements and family landmarks provide local context across the western terrain. Genealogists may find value in the locations of Lawless Cem, Murray Cem, and Keen Cem, which are documented alongside established crossroads such as Sewellton, Freedom, and Rose Crossroads. Near the southern edge, the map records Rowena overlooking the river valley, while the north is marked by the community of Karlus.
