1951 Map of Lynnville

The presence of numerous strip mines in the northwest, particularly around Southport, points to the mid-century extraction economy that shaped this part of the Tennessee borderland. Genealogists will find a wealth of local landmarks, from family burial grounds like the Garrett Cemetery and Chaffin Cemetery to remote country sanctuaries such as Taylor Chapel and Fry Branch Church. Along the streams of Fountain Creek and Yokley Creek, the map details a complex web of named hollows, including Ingram Hollow and Tanyard Hollow, providing an exacting look at the valley geography before later development.
