2013 Map of Wallins Creek

About this map

The Cumberland River cuts a prominent path through this mountain landscape, providing a primary corridor for settlements like Coldiron and Layman. The topography is defined by high ridges and spurs, including Foresters Spur and Puckett Ridge, which separate the various creek valleys. Small communities and named hollows are scattered throughout the drainage basins, with Wallins Creek serving as a central hub alongside South Wallins. The map illustrates a dense network of local roads and creek-side dwellings, reflecting a settlement pattern deeply tied to the narrow valley floors. Genealogists will find notable burial sites such as Coldiron Cem and Gross Cem, while local historians can trace the development of smaller locales like Tacky Town and Fresh Meadows.
