About this map

French Broad Lake and its intricate shoreline dominate this area of East Tennessee, marking the geography where the Douglas River, Pigeon River, and French Broad River converge. This 1961 survey illustrates the rural landscape before major modernization, showing the intersection of Hamblen, Cocke, Jefferson, and Greene counties. Local life is anchored by small communities such as Rankin and Point Pleasant, with numerous family-named sites like Calfee Cem, Rogers Cem, and the Holitown McGowan Creek Ch providing vital clues for genealogists.
