1952 Map of Hendersonville

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

The Cumberland River carves deep, dramatic loops through this portion of Sumner County, creating the prominent peninsulas of Lindsley Bend and Cages Bend. The landscape in the early 1950s is defined by a traditional rural Tennessee settlement pattern, where small communities like Saundersville and Avondale are linked by the Louisville and Nashville Railroad and historic thoroughfares such as the Nashville and Gallatin Pike. At the western edge, Hendersonville appears in its pre-suburban era, characterized by scattered homes and local landmarks like Stark Knob Ch.
