1901 Map of Colombia

USGS Topo · Published 1901

About this map

The Duck River meanders through this late nineteenth-century Tennessee landscape, serving as the central artery for a region of rolling hills and hollows across Maury, Hickman, and Williamson counties. Regional connectivity is defined by a network of historic thoroughfares, including the Natchez Trace and numerous turnpikes such as the Columbia and Sheffield Pike and the Columbia and Williamsport Pike, which converge on the growing hub of Columbia. Industrial and economic activity is evident in the presence of Little Rock Mills and Spencers Mill, while the Nashville Chattanooga and St Louis RR and the L & N RR Mt Pleasant Div provided critical rail links for the area's small settlements like Warner and Nunnelly. For the local historian, the map identifies specific landmarks like the U.S. Arsenal, the Lewis Monument, and rural social centers like Zion Ch and the waters at Bonaqua Springs.
