1949 Map of Chapel Hill

About this map

Riggs Crossroads and the surrounding farmland sit at a geographic intersection where Marshall, Williamson, and Rutherford counties meet. This 1949 survey, with revisions through the late 1970s, captures a landscape defined by small rural hubs and the Louisville and Nashville railroad corridor. The terrain transitions from the elevations of the Tennessee Valley Divide and Buckeye Ridge in the north toward the flatter basins of Lick Creek and Plum Branch in the south.
