Hwy 33: Sneedville

Hwy 33 takes you to Sneedville, originally called "Greasy Rock"" for a popular spot where hunters dressed skins and piled meat on a large rock. Once the seat of Hancock County, it was named Sneedville to honor W. H. Sneed, a Knoxville attorney who helped establish the county. The town's bluegrass heritage includes legendary pickers Jimmy Martin and Doyle Lawson, who both grew up here.
