1936 Map of Bucksnort

About this map

The Duck River winds through a dense network of hollows along the border of Humphreys and Hickman Counties in this 1936 Tennessee Valley Authority and USGS survey. This era reveals a landscape defined by small, isolated communities like Bucksnort and Bold Spring, where life centered around local landmarks such as Old Furnace Sch and Harmony Sch Ch. The survey detail highlights the intricate drainage systems of the western Highland Rim, from the sprawling Egypt Hollow to the many branches feeding into Sugar Creek and Tumbling Creek. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of family-named burial grounds, including Pruett Cem, Larkin Cem, and McClannahan Cem, alongside vanished school sites like Wills Chapel Sch. The transition from rural trails to established roads reflects the early infrastructure development in this corner of Tennessee.
