2019 Map of Pitcher Ridge

About this map

Keith Spring Cem and Posey Field Cem are among several family and community burial sites situated within the deep coves of Franklin County. This corner of the southern Cumberland Plateau is defined by its complex drainage and ridge systems, where waters from Sal City Spring and Hurricane Cr carve through Keith Cove and Davis Cove. The settlement pattern follows these narrow valley floors and gaps, with homes and small farms clustered near water sources like Keith Spring. Along the southern portion of the sheet, the landscape transitions toward Lakeview, featuring Lakeview Lake Number One. The terrain is notably indented by numerous "coves" such as Sinking Cove and Farmer Cove, which reflect the karst topography of the region where surface water often disappears into subterranean channels.
