About this map

Lenoir City serves as the industrial and residential hub of this Tennessee landscape, situated where the Clinch River meets the expansive Watts Bar Lake. The town's historic commercial core is evidenced by the Lenoir City Post Office and the Lenoir Mill, while the Norfolk Southern railroad line underscores the area's long-standing connection to regional trade. Water management and infrastructure define the southern reaches, where the Tellico Dam and a series of structures like Saddle Dam 1 and Saddle Dam 2 control the river's flow around Bussell Island and Harrison Island.

Genealogists and local historians can trace numerous family-named sites, from Pickel Cemetery in the north to the Harrison Cemetery and Potters Field Cemetery further south. The map also documents the transition from river-based transport to modern transit, featuring landmarks like Thurmans Dock and Bussell Ferry alongside the Lenoir City Lookout Tower and a complex network of ridge-top roads such as Tate Coley Rd and Waller Ferry Rd.
