About this map

The Tennessee River - Wheeler Lake corridor dominates this landscape, where the Wheeler National Wildlife Refuge preserves the river's backwaters and islands. The 1949 field examination documents a rural society established on the higher ground of Turkey Mountain and Mason Ridge, while the river lowlands are a maze of ponds and sloughs like Buckeye Pond and Leemon Slough. Genealogists will find a high density of family and community burial sites, including the Hundley Cem, Ashford Cem, and Kolb Cem.
