2019 Map of Sampson

About this map

Mooneyham and Sampson serve as the primary focal points of this portion of the Cumberland Plateau in Bledsoe and Van Buren counties. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of Camps Gulf Br, reflecting a region characterized by upland settlements and intricate drainage patterns. These communities developed along the high ridges and natural gaps of the plateau, where small-scale farming and timber interests shaped the local economy. The survey details the sparse road network connecting these remote settlements, providing a clear view of the rural infrastructure and land use in this part of Tennessee during the early 21st century.
