1957 Map of Henrietta

About this map

The rolling landscape of Tennessee's rural borderlands between Montgomery and Cheatham counties is captured here in the late 1950s. Centered on the community of Henrietta, the terrain is defined by a dense network of family-named landmarks and local institutions, such as the County Home for the Indigent and churches including Waltons Chapel and McAdoo Ch. The map reveals a transition in transportation, showing the established Clarksville Pike alongside sections of roadway marked as Under Construction. Numerous family cemeteries like Hollis-Nanny Cem, Gupton Cem, and Jarrell Cem provide critical data for genealogical research, while watercourses like Half Pone Creek and Sorghum Branch illustrate the area's natural drainage patterns before modern development altered the rural character of these crossroads.
