1936 Map of Deerfield

USGS Topo · Published 1936

About this map

The Little Buffalo River and its numerous tributaries, including Wolfpen Branch and Dry Branch, carve through the rural landscape of Lawrence County in the mid-1930s. Compiled from aerial photographs by the Tennessee Valley Authority and U.S. Geological Survey, this map reveals a settlement pattern tied closely to ridges and creek valleys. Community life is anchored by dispersed rural institutions such as Greenwood Ch, Macedonia Ch, and Howardville Sch. Along State Highway No 15 and State Highway No 64, small hubs like Deerfield and Red Hill provide central points for the surrounding farmsteads. A notable industrial feature, a Mine, sits in the northwest near Mine Branch, while the southeastern portion of the map is defined by family-named landscape features like Grandaddy Hollow and Kelso Hollow, reflecting the deep-rooted local history of this Tennessee region before post-war modernization.
