2016 Map of Pine View

About this map

Pine View and the surrounding drainage basins of the Buffalo and Tennessee Rivers define this section of Perry County. The landscape is characterized by a dense network of hollows, many bearing family names that provide significant leads for genealogical research, such as Dickson Hollow, Marshall Hollow, and Wilsdorf Hollow. These narrow valleys are often associated with small, rural cemeteries situated on higher ground or at the mouth of the hollows, including Bible Hill Cem and Choate Cem. To the west, the map reaches the shores of Kentucky Lake, where the undulating terrain meets the controlled waters of the Tennessee River. Transport in this era is dominated by winding local routes like Bunker Hill Rd and Linden Pineview Rd, which follow the natural contours of the ridges and creek beds. The drainage patterns of Spring Cr and Lick Cr further illustrate the traditional settlement orientation toward water sources and sheltered valley floors.
