About this map

Durhamville and the surrounding rural community sit along the border of Haywood and Lauderdale counties in West Tennessee. In the mid-1960s, this landscape was defined by an intricate network of local roads such as Nunn Road, Cox Road, and Lebanon Road, which connected a series of family and community focal points. The map reveals a high density of country churches and associated burial grounds, including Greater Zion Ch and Durham Cem, reflecting the deep-rooted settlement patterns of the area.

Agricultural life is documented through numerous field lines and landmarks like Flag Grove Sch and St Lukes Sch. Waterways including Forked Deer, Lagoon Creek, and Pond Creek drain the terrain, which is also traversed by several pipelines. Smaller settlements like Nutbush, Toulon, and Edward Grove appear as quiet crossroads in a period before significant modern expansion altered the rural character of the region.
