1939 Map of Lovelace

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The Holston River winds through the northern reaches of this East Tennessee landscape, anchoring a region defined by the parallel ridges of Bays Mountain and Grassy Mountain. Surveyed in the late 1930s, the map reveals a rural economy dependent on gap crossings and valley creek beds, with local life centered around a dense network of country churches and schools. Family-named landmarks such as McPheeter Bend, where both the McPheeter Ch and McPheeter Sch stood, suggest deep-rooted generational settlements along the river's fertile edge.
