About this map

The town of Jonesboro serves as the focal point of this 1939 survey, situated where the Southern railroad meets the rolling terrain of Washington County. To the east, the sprawling grounds of the National Soldiers Home and the Veterans Adm Facility Mountain Home (P O) mark the growing footprint of Johnson City. The landscape is defined by a series of prominent ridges, including Buffalo Ridge and Chestnut Ridge, which dictated the early transportation routes such as the Clinchfield Highway.
