1952 Map of Goodlettsville
USGS Topo · Published 1953About this map
Cumberland River curves sharply around Jones Bend, anchoring a landscape defined by postwar growth and longstanding riverfront infrastructure. In the early 1950s, the industrial influence of the DuPont rayon operations is evident at Rayon City and Old Hickory, while the inland communities of Goodlettsville and Madison serve as regional hubs along the Louisville and Nashville railroad. The map documents an important educational landmark at Madison College, alongside a dense network of rural religious and educational centers including New Bethel Ch and Madison Creek Sch. To the south, the river's utility is marked by Lock No 3 and the Hendersonville Waterworks, while the northern hills retain a more dispersed settlement pattern around the headwaters of Mansker Creek and Bakers Fork.
