1972 Map of Pickwick

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Pickwick Lake dominates this landscape, created by the massive Pickwick Landing Dam near the western edge of the quadrangle. The map reveals a post-dam environment where Pickwick Landing State Park and the Tennessee Wildlife Management Area have transformed former riverfront lands into recreational and conservation zones. While modern settlements like Pompeys Branch Estates and Holiday Hills appear, the map preserves the locations of older community anchors such as New Chapel and Mt Tabor Church. Genealogists will find a high density of family and community burial sites, including Burnt Stand Cem, Rosa Cem, and Porter Cem. The intricate network of inlets like Blowing Spring Hollow and Bruton Branch illustrates how the rising waters of the Tennessee River reshaped the rugged terrain of Sand Mountain and Pyburn Bluff.
