2013 Map of Jonesborough

About this map

Jonesborough serves as the focal point of this 2013 survey, which illustrates the modern landscape of Washington County before recent urban expansion. The terrain is defined by a series of prominent ridges, including Archer Ridge, Chestnut Ridge, and Persimmon Ridge, which channel water into creeks like Boones Cr and Little Limestone Cr. The map shows a transition from rural agricultural land, marked by landmarks like Peppermint Farms and the Center Field Airport, to the dense suburban growth of North Johnson City. Cultural and community history is preserved through the locations of numerous historic congregations, such as Hales Chapel, Highland Church, and Mount Zion Church. The map also captures infrastructure details like the Indian Ridge Tunnel and named natural water sources including Beech Spring and Susong Spring, providing a comprehensive look at the area's development and natural hydrology.
