2019 Map of White Hollow

About this map

Norris Lake dominates the southern half of this landscape, its fingers reaching deep into the hollows of the Campbell and Union County border. The map illustrates a complex network of ridges and drainage basins, where high points like Weavers Knob and Lone Mtn look down upon the numerous cemeteries that anchor the local genealogy. Settlements such as Walnut Grove and Mossy Spring are surrounded by land named for early families, including Williamson Ridge and Berry Hollow. The topography reveals how the reservoir's creation transformed the terrain, isolating landforms like the Central Peninsula and creating a series of named islands, including Wood Duck Island and Gull Island, from what were once high points along the Powell River. Multiple small family burial grounds, such as Longmire Cem and McCarty Cem, remain preserved across the ridges.
