About this map

Stevenson serves as a focal point along the Tennessee River, where the grid of Broad St and Kentucky Ave meets the rail corridor. The river landscape is significantly defined by the presence of Guntersville Lake and large river features such as Crow Creek Island and Coffee Bend Bar. Local history and genealogy are deeply embedded in the land, with numerous family burial grounds including Wimberley Cem, Foshee Cem, and Caperton Cem scattered across the flats and riverbanks.

Transportation across the wide water is anchored by the Captain John Snodgrass Bridge, connecting the valley floor to the rising elevations of Sand Mountain. The map reveals a transition from the structured residential blocks of New Town and Pinder Hill to the rural pockets of Old Fabius and Yucca. Features like Devils Hollow and Wolf Hollow mark the complex topography surrounding the river's path through Jackson County.
