About this map

Cherokee Lake dominates this landscape, its expansive waters formed by the Cherokee Dam on the Holston River. The reservoir's irregular shoreline creates numerous inlets and points such as Horseshoe Bend and Point Lookout, while recreational hubs like Wa-Ni Boat Dock and May Springs Campground reflect the area's development around the water. On the eastern side, the expansion of Morristown and Jefferson City is evident, with the Morristown Municipal Airport serving as a key regional landmark.

Local genealogy is well-preserved through numerous family and community burial grounds, including the Hammer Cemetery, Moody Cemetery, and the Martha Sunderland Cemetery near the heart of the developed areas. The region's industrial activity is grounded in its geology, shown by several active or former extraction sites like the Jarnagan Mine, Talbott Quarry, and River Ridge Quarry. This survey provides a clear view of the intersection between hydroelectric infrastructure, growing suburban centers, and the older rural foundations of East Tennessee.
