About this map

The Holston River winds through the southern portion of this landscape, carving deep oxbows like Shoe Bend and Vineyard Bend along the boundary of Grainger and Jefferson counties. This 1939 Tennessee Valley Authority survey captures a rural Appalachian economy defined by decentralized general stores and community focal points such as Massengill Mill and Peeks Mill. The presence of CCC Camp No 8 and the Buffalo Springs Fish and Game Preserve reflects the era's conservation efforts and public works projects near the community of Tampico.
