1956 Map of Gardner

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The Obion County and Weakley County line bisects this West Tennessee landscape, where small rural settlements like Gardner and Mount Pelia anchor a network of agricultural lands. The terrain is defined by the northward flow of Cypress Creek and Cane Creek, eventually reaching the South Fork Obion River at the map's southern edge. In the northwest corner, the Everett Stewart Airport stands as a modern infrastructure point amidst a dense concentration of historical markers. This survey is particularly valuable for genealogical research, documenting numerous family-named burial grounds such as McKinney Cemetery, Collier Cemetery, and Hurt Cemetery. The map captures a transition period in 1956, with subsequent revisions showing developments near the outskirts of Martin, providing a clear record of land use and small-town community centers like the Stella Ruth Community Center during the mid-20th century.
