1952 Map of Lancing

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Obed River and Emory River slice through the sandstone plateau of Morgan County, carving deep gorges that dominate this 1952 TVA field revision. The settlement of Lancing sits near the northern edge, served by the Southern railroad line as it snakes toward the community of Nemo. The landscape transitions from the agricultural clearings near Price and Shady Grove to the dense, protected woodlands of the Catoosa Wildlife Management Area, which covers a significant portion of the southern and western quadrants. Local history is anchored by family landmarks and small congregations, including the Clear Creek Church and several burial grounds like Howard Cemetery and Clark Cemetery. Along Clear Creek, the site of Howard Mill indicates the historical importance of water power in this dissected terrain of the Cumberland Mountains and Crab Orchard Mountains.
