1949 Map of Jones Knob

About this map

The Cumberland Plateau landscape of the mid-1940s is defined by the high ridge of the Tennessee Divide and the deep incisions of Big Hollow and Cross Hollow. This era of the plateau shows a network of small, rural settlements including Banner Springs, Roslin, and Jonesville, many centered around local institutions like Springs Chapel and the Roslin Sch. The rugged topography is etched with numerous family-named crossings and landmarks, such as Ashburn Ford and Jones Ford, which speak to the traditional travel patterns before modern infrastructure dominated the region.
