1965 Map of Collierville

About this map

The Southern Railway corridor serves as the industrial and social backbone for this Tennessee landscape, linking the growing community of Collierville to outlying points like Bailey and Piperton. Recorded in the mid-1960s with later updates, the map captures a period of transition as suburban expansion begins to reach eastward from Germantown. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the Wolf River and its tributaries, including Johnsons Creek and Marys Creek, which are surrounded by numerous active Gravel Pits and a network of rural routes such as Raleigh La Grange Road.
