Why this record matters
“Tennessee State Route 295” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Tennessee, State and Route provides the most credible route into that argument.

The linked authority identifier is Q85805794. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference.
