Wow! This website includes such a wealth of historical value. The upper east tn maps are of special interest to me.

Thanks for posting this!

Very interesting to actually see them. The sections that cover the line that is now operated by TVRM validates the location of the original right of way versus the right of was as donated by the Southern in the 1970s.

Tennessee is very cutting edge with on line access to official records at the state level. The Tennessee Secretary of State has a wealth of historical information and can identify the starting dates of each type of county record and gaps in records, making historical research that much easier.
