About this map

The Tennessee River corridor in West Tennessee is defined here by a series of riverside landings and ferry points just before the mid-century reservoir projects significantly altered the regional geography. This survey by Arthur E. Morgan and the Tennessee Valley Authority captures the river's winding path through Stewart and Henry counties, with the Big Sandy River feeding in from the south. The landscape is a mix of agricultural bottomlands and dense hollows, such as Mint Spring Hollow and Standing Rock Hollow, which shaped local settlement patterns. Notable river crossings and access points like Paris Landing and the Scott Fitzhugh Bridge served as vital transportation hubs. Community life is well-documented through numerous rural landmarks, including the Old Maple Grove Ch, Liberty Sch No 13, and the remote Swan Pond Swamp, providing a detailed look at the social fabric of the Henry County area during the late 1930s.
