1965 Map of Carters Creek

About this map

Spring Hill and its surrounding pastoral landscape are anchored by the Tennessee Orphans Home and the Middle Tennessee Agricultural Experiment Station, reflecting a community centered on institutional care and agricultural research. The Louisville and Nashville railroad runs alongside the Andrew Jackson Highway, bisecting the landscape of rolling hills like Hicks Hill and Allen Hill. This 1965 survey (updated in 1982) details a region dense with small rural settlements like Neapolis and Kedron, where life revolved around local landmarks like the Old Brick Church and Lanton Church. Numerous family burial grounds, including the Campbell Cem and Dobbins Cem, are scattered across the watershed of Rutherford Creek, offering a detailed record for genealogists. The presence of strip mines in the northern reaches near Kleburne hints at the industrial activities that shaped the local economy alongside the traditional dairy and crop farming.
