1955 Map of Baxter

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The town of Baxter serves as a central hub on this mid-1950s survey of the Upper Cumberland, where the Tennessee railroad line cuts through a landscape defined by deep hollows and narrow ridges. Educational and religious institutions are prominent, from the Baxter Seminary in town to the Junior Military Academy at Bloomington Springs. The rural landscape is densely dotted with family-named burial grounds like Odd Fellows Cem, Bartlett Cem, and Rogers Cem, reflecting generations of settlement along the waterways of Indian Creek and Martin Creek.
