2010 Map of Beechgrove

About this map

Beech Grove Post Office sits at the southwestern edge of this landscape, where the Garrison Fork meets the modern path of Interstate 24. The terrain is a complex network of ridges and hollows, including Teal Ridge and Robinson Ridge, which separate the headwaters of the Duck River from several smaller drainage branches. A dense concentration of family and community burial grounds, such as the Donnell Cemetery, Thyatira Cemetery, and Gilley Hill Cemetery, suggests a long history of rural settlement and local genealogy. Movement through this portion of Coffee County is defined by winding roads that follow the natural topography of places like Armstrong Hollow and Jernigans Hollow. This survey captures the rural character of the area just before the turn of the decade, showing established farms and small residential clusters near Gilly Hill and Carson Hills.
