2013 Map of Rockholds

About this map

The Cumberland River and its winding tributaries define the topography of the Rockholds region in this 2013 survey. The community of Rockholds sits near the confluence of Watts Cr and Carr Cr, while Perkins and Louden anchor the southern reaches of the quadrangle. The terrain is marked by numerous ridges and hollows, such as King Mountain, Bald Knob, and Chestnut Oak Mountain. For genealogists, the map is a vital resource, identifying over a dozen burial sites including McNeil Cem, King Cem, and McFarland Cem. Local travel is facilitated by a network of rural routes like Old Corbin Rd and Springtown Rd. From the heights of Lawson High Top to the banks of Meadow Cr, the map illustrates a region where life follows the steep contours of the Appalachian foothills.
