1955 Map of Gallatin

About this map

Gallatin serves as the focal point of this Sumner County landscape, showing the city's expansion near the northern reaches of Old Hickory Lake. The map captures a moment when the Seaboard rail line and local pikes like Dobbins Pike dictated the movement of goods and people through the Tennessee interior. North of the city, the terrain transitions into a series of ridges and hollows, including Poplar Hollow and East Hollow, where smaller settlements like South Tunnel and Graball are situated.
