About this map

Bethesda and Peytonsville anchor this rural Williamson County landscape, which is defined by a dense network of family cemeteries and small community schools established before the mid-20th century. The Tennessee River Valley Divide cuts through the southern portion of the sheet, separating the drainages of the Harpeth River and West Harpeth River from the smaller branches like Aenon Creek to the south. Local transit follows traditional routes like the Franklin and Lewisburg Pike and Arno Pike, which connect isolated settlements such as Douglas and the curiously named Pull Tight.
