1979 Map of Shooks Gap

About this map

The confluence of the Holston River and the French Broad River forms the Tennessee River at the prominent Forks of the River, a landscape defined by industrial activity and established educational institutions. The Southern Railway tracks trace the riverbanks, serving resource-rich areas like Meades Quarry and Marbledale. To the south, Johnson Bible College anchors the community of Kimberlin Heights near the base of the Bays Mountains, while the Sevier Home sits along the McCall Branch in a valley characterized by numerous family burial grounds including Shook Cem and Neubert Cem. Suburban development from Knoxville extends into Burlington and Lake Forest, yet much of the terrain remains tied to its topographical features like Brown Mountain and the expansive Eastern State Wildlife Management Area.
