About this map

White Bluff and Burns anchor this Tennessee landscape, where the Tennessee Valley Divide snakes through the center of the quadrangle. The map is exceptionally dense with family-named burial grounds, including the Gillian Chapel Cem, Price Cem, and Meek Cem, providing a significant data set for local genealogists. The terrain is defined by a network of steep hollows like Wildcat Hollow and Paine Hollow, which feed into local waterways such as Jones Cr and Beaverdam Cr.

Industrial and recreational history is visible in features like the McNair Cut and the extensive trail system around Creech Hollow Lake. Named junctions and smaller settlements such as Reeders Crossing, Tidwell, and Pomona illustrate the historical transit patterns and early rural development of Dickson County. Notable landmarks like The Punch Bowl and several spring-fed sites like Grassy Spring highlight the unique geological character of the region.
