1936 Map of Dellrose
USGS Topo · Published 1936About this map
The Elk River and the Louisville And Nashville railroad define the agricultural and transportation landscape of southern Middle Tennessee in the mid-1930s. Centered around Dellrose and New Dellrose, the map reveals a network of rural communities connected by primitive roads and the rail line, which passes through the Luda Tunnel near Luda Siding. Along the river, features like Crowley Island and the Stone Bluff Bridge mark the local topography. This Tennessee Valley Authority survey captures a high density of genealogical landmarks, including family cemeteries like Malone Cem and Eagin Cem, alongside rural institutions such as Smyrna Sch and Union Hill Ch. The presence of Elkmont Springs in the southwest corner and Blanche in the southeast highlights the spread of small settlements along the Giles Lincoln County Line and the State Line.
