1943 Map of Ketner Gap

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The Cumberland Escarpment dominates the topography of this Tennessee landscape, marking a sharp transition from the Sequatchie River valley into the high timberlands of the Prentice Cooper State Forest and Wildlife Management Area. In the valley, early 20th-century life is etched into the terrain through a network of family-named cemeteries such as Grayson Cem, Teague Cem, and Smith Cem. Settlement patterns follow the Louisville and Nashville RR and the Taft Highway, where local landmarks like the Drive-In Theater and Looneys Chapel anchored the community of Powells Crossroads.
