About this map

The Cumberland River snake-like loops dominate the southern landscape of this 1932 Smith County survey, carving dramatic landforms such as Horseshoe Bend, McClure Bend, and Smith Bend. This is a world of rural ridges and hollows where life centered on the river and its many tributaries, including Peyton Creek and Jennings Creek. The map documents a dense network of early 20th-century community hubs, many of which are identified primarily by their local educational and religious institutions, such as Sycamore Valley Sch and Cromwell Chapel.
