About this map

The Caney Fork River and Collins River carve a winding course through this mid-century landscape where Warren, DeKalb, and White counties meet. The region is defined by dramatic river geography, notably the sharp oxbows of Horseshoe Bend and Wright Bend along the Center Hill Reservoir. Near the southern edge, the settlement of Campaign sits as a hub for local transportation and industry, situated along the Louisville and Nashville railroad and the Nashville and Louisville Road.

Evidence of established rural life is seen in the many local landmarks, from the educational history of Moores College to the numerous small churches like Old Bybee Chapel and Jericho Ch. The presence of a Hydro Plant and Gaging Station near the Great Falls Lake illustrates the mid-century management of the river system for power and flood control, while older transit patterns persist in names like Francis Ferry Road.
