About this map

Dickson stands as the primary hub on this map, showing the city's modern layout and its proximity to historical industrial and residential sites. The landscape is characterized by a dense network of cemeteries, such as Union Cemetery and Sullivan Cemetery, which offer significant value for genealogical research. The presence of the Worley Furnace Mines and Worley Furnace Branch points to the area's history of iron production and resource extraction.

Topography in the region is defined by numerous named hollows, including Springer Hollow and Opossum Hollow, as well as prominent elevations like Center Avenue Hill. Waterways such as the West Piney River and East Piney River drain the terrain, with local reservoirs like New City Lake and Dickson Lake serving as key landmarks. Small crossings and springs, including Donegan Crossing and Redden Spring, indicate the historical importance of local water sources and transportation routes through the Tennessee countryside.
