1949 Map of Fosterville

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The Tennessee Valley Divide snakes through this landscape on the border of Rutherford and Bedford Counties, separating the drainages of the West Fork Stones River and the North Fork Creek. At the base of the Nebo Knobs, the rural communities of Fosterville and Christiana are positioned along the Louisville and Nashville railroad, which served as a vital transport artery for the region's agricultural economy. This 1949 survey (with 1979 revisions) captures a network of small family-named landmarks and rural institutions that defined mid-century life.
