1951 Map of Hebron

USGS Topo · Published 1951

About this map

The Hatchie River meanders through the heart of Hardeman County in the early 1950s, creating a wide floodplain known as The Big Bottom. This survey reveals a rural landscape defined by small upland settlements and the watercourses that drain toward the river, including Deadman Branch and Welcome Usher Creek. The settlement of Hebron serves as a local anchor, while the surrounding hills are dotted with foundational community institutions such as Campbell Chapel and Mt Olive Sch. For genealogists, the map provides precise locations for several family-associated landmarks, including Salem Cem and Harris Cem. The concentration of rural schools like Oak Hill Sch and Burnette Sch highlights the decentralized nature of West Tennessee education during this era, before major consolidation changed the character of these farming communities.
