2010 Map of Life

About this map

Chapel Hill anchors the northwest corner of this Henderson County landscape, where a dense network of country roads connects decades of family homesteads and rural landmarks. The terrain is defined by the winding paths of Wolf Creek and Middle Fork Creek, which feed into the larger hydrological system including the Beech River. This survey reveals a high concentration of small, family-named burial grounds, such as Mullins Cemetery and the County Farm Cemetery, offering significant value for genealogical research. The presence of Pine Dam and Sycamore Dam illustrates the mid-century water management efforts in the region. Along the southern reaches, the mapping of Jacks Creek and smaller tributaries like Goff Branch highlights the agricultural drainage patterns that shaped local land use and property boundaries during this era of Tennessee history.
