About this map

Jellico sits at the northern edge of this Campbell County survey, where the valley terrain meets the Kentucky Tennessee state line. The landscape is defined by the prominent ridge of Pine Mountain, which cuts diagonally across the center, influencing the development of mountain gaps and valley settlements. To the north, the Daniel Boone National Forest begins near Red Ash, while the southern reaches of the map show established mountain communities like Habersham and Chaska.

Genealogists will find several family burial sites throughout the hills, including Perkins Cem, Gibson Cem, and Bowlin Cem near Highcliff. The road network, including State HWY 1804 and the winding Old US Hwy 25W, follows the natural drainage of Clear Fork and Hickory Creek. This document highlights the transition from the settled coal-country towns to the high, hollow-riven terrain of Big Four Mtn and Rich Mtn.
