About this map

The Duck River winds through the northeast corner of this rural landscape, defined by a network of family-named roads and crossings like Sims Bridge and Temple Ford. This mid-century survey illustrates the rural character of the Bedford and Marshall County line, where small communities like Wheel and Bedford served as local anchors. The map reveals a dense distribution of social and family history sites, including Fairview Sch and numerous burial grounds such as Pisgah Cem, Gaunt Cem, and Redd Cem.
