2013 Map of Flintville

About this map

The Flint River meanders through this portion of Lincoln County, south of the Alabama border, anchoring a landscape defined by small rural hubs and a network of named springs. This 2013 survey illustrates the area surrounding Flintville, where the river is joined by various tributaries including Mulepen Cr and Big Huckleberry Cr. The presence of Milners Switch reflects the historical railroad alignment that once served the local timber or agricultural economy. Local geography is deeply tied to water sources, marked by features such as Crystal Springs, Gum Spring, and Nixon Spring. Low-lying areas like Sycamore Swamp and the various hollows, including Gin Hollow and Teal Hollow, contrast with the upland road networks connecting Corder Crossroads and Brighton. This map is a record of local family-named landmarks and long-established communities like New Hope and Vanntown, providing a clear view of the rural settlement patterns in south-central Tennessee.
