About this map

Lobelville serves as the primary hub of this Tennessee landscape, situated along the banks of the Buffalo River. The topography is defined by an intricate network of hollows and ridges, such as Snake Ridge and Cunningham Ridge, which dictate the paths of early roads like Old State Hwy 13. Family history is deeply rooted in the land here, evidenced by numerous small burial grounds including the Malugin Cemetery, Gray Cemetery, and Dodson Cemeteries.

The presence of the Lobelville Lookout Tower to the south and the Standing Rock Bridge to the north suggests a community that has long balanced forestry management with river crossings. Significant water features like Terrapin Creek and Crooked Creek feed into the Buffalo, creating productive bottomlands such as Squeeze Bottom and Rains Bottom. This survey documents the persistent settlement patterns of Perry County at the start of the 21st century.
