2010 Map of Dysartsville

About this map

The Tennessee River and the Big Sandy River define the watery landscape of this 1953 topographic survey of the Bruceton region. Transportation corridors like the Nc & St L Ry and the L & N Rr cut through the terrain, connecting established communities such as Camden, Eva, and Holladay. The map reveals a deeply rooted rural society, evidenced by the numerous congregations and burial grounds dotting the hills, including Mt Carmel Ch, Ebenezer Ch, and Bethlehem Cem. Local education in these small settlements is anchored by institutions like the Eva Sch and Chalk Level Sch. Further inland, landmarks like the Muddy Creek B S A Dam and Muddy Creek B S A Lake suggest organized land management and recreation. This map captures a moment of transition where traditional river-valley life meets the industrial expansion of mid-century Tennessee.
