About this map

The Harpeth River meanders through this landscape in Middle Tennessee, serving as a central geographic anchor for numerous small family settlements and historic burying grounds. Local centers of community life are marked by the College Grove Post Office and the Arrington Post Office, reflecting the rural postal network of the early 21st century. The terrain is defined by prominent elevations such as Patton Knob and Yancey Knob, while the valley floors are crisscrossed by a dense network of country roads including College Grove Rd and Old Murfreesboro Rd.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the documentation of several family-named cemeteries, such as the Newton Cannon Cemetery, Scales Cemetery, and Triune Cemetery. The map also captures uniquely named locations like Pull Tight and The Cove, alongside infrastructure like the Lampkin Bridge, providing a detailed view of the regional land use and cultural heritage before further suburban expansion.
