1949 Map of Pine View

About this map

Pine View and the surrounding hollows of Perry County are centered within this 1949 survey, which was updated in 1973 to reflect the evolving landscape near the Kentucky Bdy. The topography is defined by an intricate network of narrow valleys and ridges, where small communities and family landmarks like Bible Hill Cem and Union Ch anchor the local history. Life in this portion of Tennessee followed the drainage of Toms Creek and Lick Creek, with numerous named hollows such as Madden Hollow and O'Guin Hollow indicating long-standing family settlements. The map shows the area shortly after the creation of Kentucky Lake, illustrating how the impounded water reached into former creek beds like Deer Creek. Genealogists will find significant value in the many burial sites, including Clayborne Cem, Pace Cem, and Strickland Cem, which remain as markers of the rural population before more modern shifts in the mid-20th century.
