1950 Map of Grand Junction
USGS Topo · Published 1981About this map
The Illinois Central and Southern railroads intersect at Grand Junction, a pivotal rail junction in southwestern Tennessee at the mid-century. This survey, photorevised in 1980, illustrates a landscape where the Fayette and Hardeman county lines meet amidst a network of small rural communities and extensive family landmarks. To the west, the town of La Grange sits near the headwaters of the Wolf River, while the northern portion is dominated by the Ames Plantation. The map is particularly rich for genealogical research, identifying numerous local institutions such as Jones Chapel Sch, Hunts Chapel Sch, and Spring Chapel. The bottomlands of Clemmons Bottom and the winding course of Indian Creek define the southern terrain, reflecting a region deeply tied to its watercourses and rail lines.
