About this map

The Cumberland Plateau dominates the northern landscape of this Jackson County region, where the terrain drops sharply into narrow coves and broad valley bottoms. By 1950, the area's social and economic life was centered along the corridor of the Southern Railway and the Lee Highway, which connected established settlements like Lim Rock and Larkinsville. The map reveals a dense network of family-named landmarks and rural institutions, from the Lim Rock School and Pierceton School to numerous small houses of worship including Bethlehem Church and Jennies Chapel.
