The Tennessee Virtual Archive (TeVA) contains a freely viewable, digital version of the Map of Haywood County, Tennessee, from actual surveys and official records<\/em> published by Beers & Co. in 1877. <\/p>\n

The map contains many names of property owners, roads, waterways, railroad lines, and topographic features.  The right-most edge contains legend details and information about local businesses and patrons of the map.<\/p>\n

The TeVA map is complete and in its original color.  The map is freely viewable and downloadable by clicking here<\/a>.  Note the map must be enlarged to be readable.  Enlargement is accomplished easily in the TeVA browser window.<\/p>\n

The FamilySearch catalogue includes the same map, with a portion missing at the top.  The FamilySearch version is in black-and-white, but it is in segments that can be viewed as larger images if you download them to your device.<\/p>\n

You can view the map for free at FamilySearch — you will require a free login.<\/p>\n
