1950 Map of Standing Rock

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Standing Rock and its namesake creek anchor this mid-century view of the Tennessee landscape just east of the Kentucky Lake shoreline. The area is defined by a dense network of hollows, such as Lissie Milton Hollow and Opossum Bullpen Hollow, that separate ridges like the Tennessee Valley Divide. This map captures a community oriented around country churches and family burial grounds, including the Standing Rock Church, McGee Chapel, and Mulberry Hill Cem. The road system, featuring the Memorial Highway and the Austin Peay Tennessee Ridge Road, follows the natural contours of the land. Evidence of earlier settlement is found in small labels like Ruins near Cote Hollow, while numerous springs like Coz Spring and Bubbling Spring indicate the primary water sources for the homesteads located throughout these valleys.
