1939 Map of Lovelace

USGS Topo · Published 1939

About this map

The Bays Mountains dominate this 1939 Tennessee Valley Authority and USGS collaboration, showing a landscape defined by sharp ridges and narrow valleys on the border of Hawkins, Sullivan, and Greene counties. Small farming and timber communities are scattered throughout the gaps, with Dykes Mill and Light Mill marking early industrial sites along the creeks. The area's social fabric is visible through its many country institutions, including Cedar Chapel, Mc Ferrin Ch, and the curiously named Yankee Cem located near the Upper Grassy Fork.
