2022 Map of Lovelace

About this map

The Holston River and the waters of Cherokee Lake define the northern reaches of this East Tennessee landscape, where the ridges of Bays Mountain create a series of distinct valleys and gaps. The map documents the rural character of the region, anchored by settlements such as Goshen, Blair Gap, and Lovelace. Of particular interest to local historians are the numerous family and community burial grounds, including Yankee Cem, Morrison Cem, and Oak Glenn Union Cem.
