1936 Map of Centerville Landing

About this map

The Tennessee River serves as the dominant artery of this 1936 landscape, a time when numerous river landings like Paris Landing and Centerville Landing still defined the local transport economy. This Tennessee Valley Authority survey captures the confluence with the Big Sandy River and its intricate network of sloughs and islands, including Big Sandy Island. The map reveals a deeply etched terrain of hollows—such as Wofford Hollow and Mullins Hollow—which supported a dispersed rural community connected by small schools and churches. Genealogists will find a wealth of specific landmarks, including Old Maple Grove Ch, St Mary Ch, and family-named burial grounds like Wofford Cem. The spanning of the river by the Scott Fitzhugh Bridge along State Highway No 76 marks the modernization of transit through the river bottomlands just before significant hydrological changes altered this region.
