INTRODUCTION LOCATION AND EXTENT The Sequatchie anticline, a major structure of the Cumberland Plat eau, parall els the regional strike of the Appalachians for a distance of over 200 mile s (Fig. 1 ) . It extends "southwes tward from the south side of the Emory River in Morgan County, Tennesse e, nearly to the forks of the Black Warrior River in Walker and Jefferson Count ies, • tt: Alabama • • (Rodgers , 1950, p. 672 ). The present study is conc erned with the overthrust block of the Sequatchie Valley fault which extends approx­ imately 80 miles from the Tennessee-Alabama stat� line northe ast to the Crab Orchard Mountains , Cumberland County, �ennessee. The width of the portion of the overthrus t block mapped averages four mi les; hence the are a mapped approximates 300 to 350 square miles. TOPOGRAPHIC EXPRESS ION OF THE STRUCTURE Rodgers (1950, pp . 672-674) gave the following descrip� tion of the Sequatchie antic line: At its north end it is a low, nearly symmetrical arch in the Pennsylvanian rocks of the Cumberland Plateau, the uparched Pennsylvanian sandstone and conglomerate beds forming a prominent line of hills (the Crab Orchard Mountains ) .

  • Topography Along the Virginia-Kentucky Border
    Preface: Topography along the Virginia-Kentucky border. It took a long time for the Appalachian Mountain range to attain its present appearance, but no one was counting. Outcrops found at the base of Pine Mountain are Devonian rock, dating back 400 million years. But the rocks picked off the ground around Lexington, Kentucky, are even older; this limestone is from the Cambrian period, about 600 million years old. It is the same type and age rock found near the bottom of the Grand Canyon in Colorado. Of course, a mountain range is not created in a year or two. It took them about 400 years to obtain their character, and the Appalachian range has a lot of character. Geologists tell us this range extends from Alabama into Canada, and separates the plains of the eastern seaboard from the low-lying valleys of the Ohio and Mississippi rivers. Some subdivide the Appalachians into the Piedmont Province, the Blue Ridge, the Valley and Ridge area, and the Appalachian plateau. We also learn that during the Paleozoic era, the site of this mountain range was nothing more than a shallow sea; but during this time, as sediments built up, and the bottom of the sea sank. The hinge line between the area sinking, and the area being uplifted seems to have shifted gradually westward. At the end of the Paleozoric era, the earth movement are said to have reversed, at which time the horizontal layers of the rock were uplifted and folded, and for the next 200 million years the land was eroded, which provided material to cover the surrounding areas, including the coastal plain.

Durham The State of State History in Tennessee in 2008 The Underground Railroad in Tennessee to 1865 A Report by State Historian Walter T. Durham Tennessee State Library and Archives Department of State Nashville, Tennessee 37243 Jeanne D. Sugg State Librarian and Archivist Department of State, Authorization No. 305294, 2000 copies November 2008. This public document was promulgated at a cost of $1.77 per copy. Preface and Acknowledgments In 2004 and again in 2006, I published studies called The State of State History in Tennessee. The works surveyed the organizations and activities that preserve and interpret Tennessee history and bring it to a diverse public. This year I deviate by making a study of the Under- ground Railroad in Tennessee and bringing it into the State of State History series. No prior statewide study of this re- markable phenomenon has been produced, a situation now remedied. During the early nineteenth century, the number of slaves escaping the South to fi nd freedom in the northern states slowly increased. The escape methodologies and ex- perience, repeated over and over again, became known as the Underground Railroad. In the period immediately after the Civil War a plethora of books and articles appeared dealing with the Underground Railroad. Largely written by or for white men, the accounts contained recollections of the roles they played in assisting slaves make their escapes. There was understandable exag- geration because most of them had been prewar abolitionists who wanted it known that they had contributed much to the successful fl ights of a number of slaves, oft times at great danger to themselves.

Technically this watershed begins with a massive spring flowing from Devilstep Hollow Cave—a large limestone cavern. However, due to the karst nature of the watershed, there are hundreds of feeding streams that come from smaller caves. In particular, the section of watershed concerning this plan is the Little Sequatchie River. The Little Sequatchie is characterized as 19.6 miles of plateau escarpment by the state of Tennessee (Tennessee, Ch. 2). Due to the higher velocity and rockiness of a plateau stream, there is less fishing and recreation value in the Little Sequatchie watershed than in the larger Sequatchie watershed. However, it has a higher scenic ranking.

Wheather you enjoy spending your time in the great outdoors enjoying Wnature, catching a round of golf, shopping, enjoying world-class live theatrical productions or delving into history, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. Our professional theater, the Cumberland County Playhouse, serves up drama, musicals, original produc- tions and a concert series. It also holds the distinction of being the largest rural professional theater in the country. Concerts and local productions run the gamut for the historic Palace Theatre on Crossville’s Main St. School concerts and special presentations of area musicians are among the many, many activities going on in the 1930s art-deco structure which stands as the “jewel of Main St.” When the theaters go dark, there are other places and things to explore. Crossville Outlet Center has more than 20 stores offering brand-name merchandise. Antique shops are plentiful throughout the county, and there are several consignment shops for folks looking for a bargain. Cumberland Mountain State Park is one of the pre- mier parks in the Tennessee park system. Cabins are available for lodging, and the park also offers camping, paddleboating, canoeing, an Olympic-sized swim- ming pool, fishing, hiking, picnicking and play areas, and tennis courts. There is also a meeting facility and restaurant for the family reunions, a dinner out and other activities.
