Soil Survey of Jefferson County, Tennessee United States In cooperation with Department of the Tennessee Agricultural Agriculture Experiment Station, the Soil Survey of Jefferson County Natural Board of Commissioners, Jefferson County, Resources and the Tennessee Conservation Department of Agriculture Service Tennessee Detailed maps are available in two formats. Digital copies (SSURGO) that can be used in a Geographic Information System (GIS) can be accessed at http://www.ftw.nrcs.usda.gov/ssur_data.html. (The State Soil Survey Area ID is TN089.) Paper copies of the maps can be obtained from the Natural Resources Conservation Service, 1230 Circle Drive, Dandridge, TN 37725 (telephone number 423-397-3151). 3 How to Use This Soil Survey General Soil Map The general soil map, which is a color map, shows the survey area divided into groups of associated soils called general soil map units. This map is useful in planning the use and management of large areas. To find information about your area of interest, locate that area on the map, identify the name of the map unit in the area on the color-coded map legend, then refer to the section General Soil Map Units for a general description of the soils in your area. Detailed Soil Maps The detailed soil maps can be useful in planning the use and management of small areas. To find information about your area of interest, locate that area on the Index to Map Sheets. Note the number of the map sheet and turn to that sheet. Locate your area of interest on the map sheet. Note the map unit symbols that are in that area. Turn to the Contents, which lists the map units by symbol and name and shows the page where each map unit is described. The Contents shows which table has data on a specific land use for each detailed soil map unit. Also see the Contents for sections of this publication that may address your specific needs. 4 This soil survey is a publication of the National Cooperative Soil Survey, a joint effort of the United States Department of Agriculture and other Federal agencies, State agencies including the Agricultural Experiment Stations, and local agencies. The Natural Resources Conservation Service (formerly the Soil Conservation Service) leads the Federal part of the National Cooperative Soil Survey. Major fieldwork for this soil survey was completed in 1988. Soil names and descriptions were approved in 1991. Unless otherwise indicated, statements in this publication refer to conditions in the survey area in 1988. This survey was made cooperatively by the Natural Resources Conservation Service, the Tennessee Agricultural Experiment Station, the Jefferson County Board of Commissioners, and the Tennessee Department of Agriculture. The survey is part of the technical assistance furnished to the Jefferson County Soil Conservation District. Soil maps in this survey may be copied without permission. Enlargement of these maps, however, could cause misunderstanding of the detail of mapping. If enlarged, maps do not show the small areas of contrasting soils that could have been shown at a larger scale.

  • In Death Not Divided Tombstone Survey & Burial Places of East Tennessee Civil War Veterans
    In Death Not Divided Tombstone Survey & Burial Places of East Tennessee Civil War Veterans A Regional project of the East Tennessee Historical Society in partnership with affiliate and local societies In commemoration of the Civil War Sesquicentennial, the East Tennessee Historical Society is sponsoring a project to identify the burial places of East Tennessee Civil War soldiers, as well as any Civil War soldier buried in the region. Individuals and historical, genealogical, lineage, and other organizations are invited to participate. The second goal of the project is to survey the condition of the tombstones, indicating if they are broken, legible or illegible, military or private. It is hoped that the project will spur the marking of graves and/or repair of tombstones. The forms submitted for the project will become part of a East Tennessee Civil War graves collection in the McClung Historical Collection, where, given the forces of time and progress, they will be a permanent record of the stones, their locations, and conditions. The database of information is slated to launch in October 2013 and can be accessed via the East Tennessee Historical Society website. Criteria for veteran inclusion _____________________________________________ • Union and Confederate • Soldier from East Tennessee with service in East Tennessee regiment or other • Soldier who served from East Tennessee, buried in East Tennessee or elsewhere • East Tennessee soldier who died in prison, battle, or military hospital, even if burial place unknown • Any Civil War

  • Mountain Memories
    Mountain Memories By Gene A. Morrell April 2014 2 Author’s note From December 1977 through January 1979, I wrote “Mountain Memories,” a weekly column, which was published in the Sullivan County News in Blountville, Tennessee. These local and family history columns were based on my research of published sources and on oral history derived from my interviews of a number of county residents, many of whom have since passed away. To the best of my knowledge, this is the first time that all the columns have been published at one time in a single publication. The columns are listed by the dates they were printed in the newspaper, and I have added a headline to each column to aid readers in quickly determining its topic. Hundreds of individual names and place names are mentioned in the columns, and, to aid readers in locating information of particular interest to them, I have included an index at the end of this book. Gene A. Morrell 3 December 15, 1977 Introduction History abounds in East Tennessee and, especially, Sullivan County. This is not just history as written in textbooks, or as constituted in established historical monuments, but is also the oral history of local communities that has been handed down from generation to generation. This history also includes family histories contained on the yellowing, aged pages of old family Bibles, letters from long forgotten relatives, and bits and pieces of papers with timeless notes of births, deaths, or marriages. Far too often these irreplaceable Bibles or other records have been thoughtlessly destroyed or lost.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE January 14, 2021 Contact: Kelsey Wilson 865-215-5116 office [email protected] KCHD partners with East Tennessee Wellness Roundtable to recognize healthy worksites Knoxville, Tenn. – County and regional leaders recognized several local employers this month for their efforts to make workplaces healthier: eight with platinum status and three with gold status. The recognition is granted annually by the Knox County Health Department and the East Tennessee Wellness Roundtable. The program awards bronze, gold or platinum status to employers who meet a series of criteria that includes: the promotion of physical activity, nutrition, breastfeeding, mental health, as well as the prevention of substance misuse and tobacco use. “Wellness and productivity go hand in hand because a healthy employee is a productive one,” said KCHD Registered Dietitian and ETWR Chair Kaela McIver. “Research has also proven again and again that wellness programs decrease health insurance costs for the employer.” A Harvard study concluded that every $1 spent on wellness programs saves about $3 in health care costs and $3 in reduced absenteeism. The 2020 ETWR Platinum worksites are: • Knoxville’s Community Development Corporation, the public housing authority for Knoxville and Knox County • City of Knoxville, the home of the city government, with 1,500 employees in the Knoxville area • University of Tennessee Medical Center, East Tennessee's top-ranked hospital and the region's only Level I Trauma Center • University of Tennessee, Knoxville,

  • A History of Tennessee.Indd
    352 TENNESSEE BLUE BOOK A HISTORY OF TENNESSEE 353 SECTION VI Tennessee 354 TENNESSEE BLUE BOOK A HISTORY OF TENNESSEE 355 A HISTORY OF TENNESSEE The Land and Native People Tennessee’s great diversity in land, climate, rivers, and plant and animal life is mirrored by a rich and colorful past. For all but the last 200 years of the 12,000 years or so that this country has been inhabited, the story of Tennessee is the story of its native peoples. The fact that Tennessee and many of the places in it still carry Indian names serves as a lasting reminder of the significance of its native inhabit- ants. Since much of Tennessee’s appeal for her ancient people as well as for later pioneer settlers lay with the richness and beauty of the land, it seems fitting to begin by considering some of the state’s generous natural gifts. Tennessee divides naturally into three “grand divisions”—upland, often moun- tainous, East Tennessee, Middle Tennessee with its foothills and basin, and the low plain of West Tennessee. Travelers coming to the state from the east encounter first the lofty Unaka and Smoky Mountains, flanked on their western slope by the Great Valley of East Tennessee. Moving across the Valley floor, they next face the Cumberland Plateau, which historically attracted little settlement and presented a barrier to westward migration. West of the Plateau, one descends into the Cen- tral Basin of Middle Tennessee—a rolling, fertile countryside that drew hunters and settlers alike. The Central Basin is surrounded on all sides by the Highland Rim, the western ridge of which drops into the Tennessee River Valley.
