About this map

Alexandria serves as the central hub of this Middle Tennessee landscape, where the confluence of several local streams and old road networks defines the settlement pattern. The town is flanked by the winding courses of Goose Cr and Hickman Cr, while the surrounding terrain is marked by significant elevations like Hearn Hill and Liberty Hill. To the south, the topography becomes more pronounced near Round Top Knob, overlooking the drainage basin of Smith Fork Cr.

Smaller rural communities such as Brush Creek to the north and Statesville in the southwest corner are connected by a web of historic thoroughfares including the Old Sparta Hwy and Old Alexandria Rd. The map detail reveals numerous named hollows, such as Malone Hollow and Chumley Hollow, which often indicate long-standing family landholdings and provide specific geographic markers for genealogists and local historians tracking the development of Wilson and DeKalb counties.
