1891 Map of Jonesville

Genealogists and local historians can trace the early river-based economy through numerous crossings like Poteet Ford, Dickerson Ford, and the landmark Kyle (Ford) on the Powell River. The map captures the isolation of communities like Mt. Pleasant and Rose Hill before the modern infrastructure of the 20th century. Notable terrain features like White Rocks and The Pocket provide clear geographical markers for those studying land grants or family migrations through Hurricane Gap and Pennington Gap.
