About this map

Greenback and the surrounding agricultural hamlets of Loudon County characterize this landscape along the eastern reaches of Tellico Lake. The map details a transition from the historic river landings of the Little Tennessee River to the modern reservoir system, as evidenced by names like Morganton Ferry and Davis Ferry. Further inland, the terrain is marked by prominent ridges such as the Red Knobs and Lotterdale Knob, which overlook a network of small creeks including Sinking Cr and Cloyd Cr.

Local landmarks such as the National Camp Ground and the Village Airport sit near established settlements like Unitia, Glendale, and Jena. This survey documents the intersection of rural life and natural features, from the heights of Alexander Knob to the water-accessible points at Carpenters Shoals. The presence of Chapel Hill church and various family-named hills and hollows provide significant reference points for those tracing the development of this East Tennessee region.
