1970 Map of Jellico East

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Pine Mountain dominates the landscape of this 1970 revision, cutting a massive diagonal across the terrain between the Tennessee and Kentucky border. The region's industrial character is defined by extensive surface mining, with numerous Strip Mine operations and a Quarry dotting the ridges above Hickory Creek and Clear Fork. Settlement patterns follow the narrow valley floors and the path of the Louisville and Nashville and Southern railroads, which served the coal and timber interests of the day. In the community of Jellico, the map details a high density of residential and commercial structures, including a High Sch and Crouches Creek Cem. Further south, rural life is marked by landmarks such as the Walnut Grove Ch and the Lookout Tower on Rich Mountain, illustrating a landscape where natural topography and industrial extraction coexist.
