About this map

The Sequatchie Valley floor is the primary corridor of settlement in this part of Bledsoe County, where the Sequatchie River flows between the high plateaus of the Cumberland Escarpment and Walden Ridge. Small rural communities like Melvine, Litton, and Ninemile follow the path of Old State Hwy 28, while the uplands remain defined by gaps and coves such as Worthington Cove and Pollard Cove. The map is particularly dense with family-named burial sites, including the Swafford Chapel Cem, Gentry Cem, and Thurman Cem Number 1, reflecting a deeply rooted genealogy in the valley. This landscape illustrates a traditional Appalachian settlement pattern where agricultural life and transit are hemmed in by the massive sandstone ridges of the Cumberland Plateau.
