1936 Map of Crestview

USGS Topo · Published 1936

About this map

Louisville and Nashville Railroad tracks dominate the center of this 1930s landscape, illustrating the critical role of rail transport in the rural highlands near the intersection of Lawrence, Maury, and Lewis Counties. The Tennessee Valley Authority's involvement is evident in the presence of the Tennessee Electric Power Company Transmission Line, which cuts a distinct path through the wooded terrain. Settlements like Summertown and Crestview serve as local hubs, connected by State Highway No 20. The map documents a community structure built around education and faith, featuring rural anchors such as Porter Chapel Sch, New Salem Sch, and Pleasant Garden Ch. Natural features including Rattlesnake Falls and the winding Buffalo River define the local topography, while numerous branches like Bargain Branch and Sheppard Branch suggest a well-watered but broken landscape.
