About this map

The French Broad River and Holston River converge here to form the headwaters of the Tennessee River, creating a landscape defined by prominent islands like Boyd Island and Dickenson Island. In the mid-1930s, the rural character of east Knoxville was anchored by the Southern Railway and a dense network of country schools and churches such as Hendrons Chapel and Sinking Springs Sch.
