2019 Map of New Market

About this map

New Market and the neighboring Jefferson City anchor this East Tennessee landscape, where the valley floor transitions into the prominent ridges of Bays Mountain and Shields Ridge. The map documents a dense concentration of rural landmarks, including numerous family and community burial grounds such as Youngs Memorial Cem and Wooten Chapel Cem near Friends Station. The transport network follows historical patterns, with the W Old Andrew Johnson Hwy and Old Knoxville Hwy threading through established settlements like Woolardtown and Dumplin. Hydrological features like Tuckahoe Creek and Dumplin Creek define the lowlands between the knobs, while distinctive peaks like Batten Knob and Thomas Knob rise above the agricultural valley. This detailed topographical record captures the area's intricate mix of small-town development and long-held rural land divisions.
