1950 Map of Bodenham

About this map

Bodenham sits at the intersection of rural life and natural topography along U.S. 64 in Giles County. This 1950 Tennessee Valley Authority study reveals a landscape densely carved by drainages like Choate Creek and Hurricane Creek, where settlement followed the ridges and narrow valleys. Local history is anchored by numerous rural institutions, including the Beech Grove Ch and Choate Creek Church, alongside several schools such as Bodenham Sch and Union Hill School. The map is particularly valuable for genealogists, as it identifies several family-named landmarks and resting places like Hughes Cem and Smith Cem. Distinctive terrain features such as Powder Mill Hill and the Tin Top summit provide context for the early road networks and small communities like New Prospect and Fall River that flourished in the mid-century South.
