2022 Map of Glendale

About this map

Duck River serpentines across this landscape, creating dramatic bends such as Cheek Bend, Whitworth Bend, and Rieves Bend. These deep river loops dictated early settlement patterns, leaving upland ridges for communities like Beech Grove and Union Grove. The area is notably dense with small family and community burial grounds, including Puckett Family Cem, Davis Mitchell Cem, and Tankersley Cem, which offer significant value for genealogists tracing Maury County roots. Transport corridors are defined by the convergence of water and rail, with Park Station and Bryant Station situated near the Silver Cr drainage. Along Fountain Creek, the small hub of Glendale sits near Glendale Field, illustrating the transition from traditional river crossings like Sowell Ford to modern infrastructure that skirts the edges of the Maury Co and Marshall Co line.
