About this map

Jefferson City serves as a prominent anchor in this landscape, highlighted by the campus of Carson-Newman University. The terrain to the south is defined by the expansive waters of Douglas Lake, where the shoreline meets established communities like Dandridge and the recreational area of Lake View Park. This survey captures the topographical complexity of the region, from the heights of Bays Mountain and Shields Ridge to the lowlands of Dumplin Valley and Hunnicutt Valley.

Genealogists and local historians can find a wealth of data points, including numerous burial sites such as Hillcrest Memorial Gardens Cem and Wesleys Chapel Cem. The map documents a mix of agricultural heritage and modern development, evidenced by rural crossroads like Colliers Corner and Hunnicutt Mill alongside administrative landmarks such as the Jefferson County Courthouse and the Jefferson County Justice Center. The network of creeks, including Dumplin Cr and Mossy Creek Spring, illustrates the natural drainage patterns that shaped early settlement.
