1936 Map of Bonnertown

USGS Topo · Published 1936

About this map

The Tennessee-Alabama border country in 1936 is defined by a dense network of upland farms and timbered hollows, centered around the settlement of Bonnertown. This survey, compiled from aerial photographs, reveals a landscape during a period of transition, with a Tennessee Valley Authority transmission line cutting across the rural topography. The area is heavily marked by local social centers, including numerous schools and churches such as Blooming Grove Sch, Richardson Chapel Sch, and Bethel Ch. Water features like the White River Branch and West Fork Sugar Creek dictate the placement of roads and homesteads, while family names are preserved in landmarks like Bethel Cem and St Truitt Cem. The presence of small hamlets like Five Points and Upper Mockeson illustrates the high density of rural population before later 20th-century consolidation.
