1954 Map of Pall Mall

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Pall Mall and the surrounding borderlands of Fentress and Pickett Counties are defined by the winding course of the Wolf River and its numerous tributaries. This mid-century landscape reflects a deeply rooted community connected by the Alvin C York Highway, named for the local World War I hero. The map reveals a dense network of local institutions, including York Chapel, York Bible Sch, and Frogge Chapel, which served the scattered farmsteads of the valley. Settlement patterns follow the bottomlands and gaps between prominent ridges like Goodman Ridge and Wayne Trace Ridge. Moving east toward Black House Mountain, the terrain becomes more isolated, transitioning into the Cumberland National Forest. Genealogists will find significant value in the documented family-named landmarks and small burial grounds such as Wolf River Cem, which anchor the local history of the Wolf River valley during this period.
