1949 Map of Bethesda

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The Harpeth River and its numerous tributaries, including Goose Creek and the West Fork Harpeth River, carve a complex drainage pattern across this Williamson County landscape. Small rural communities such as Peytonsville, Bethesda, and the curiously named Pull Tight serve as local hubs, connected by the Lewisburg Franklin Pike and Arno Pike. The map reveals a dense network of family-named landmarks, such as Hardeman Cem, Gosey Cem, and Merritt Cem, reflecting generations of settlement along the fertile creek bottoms and ridges.
