1956 Map of Gladeville

About this map

The boundary between Wilson and Rutherford counties bisects this 1956 landscape, which captured significant topographic changes by the mid-1970s. The expansion of J Percy Priest Lake along the Stones River and Hurricane Creek dominates the southern half of the sheet, reflecting the mid-century transformation of the local watershed. This reservoir development significantly altered the environment around Jefferson Springs and the northern fringes of Sewart Air Force Base.
