About this map

The Buffalo River meanders through the heart of the central Tennessee backcountry, dividing the landscape of Lewis and Lawrence counties. This 2019 survey captures a rural landscape defined by narrow hollows and numerous watercourses like Chief Cr and Saw Br. The Natchez Trace Parkway serves as a modern corridor through this historic terrain, passing by the site of Metal Ford and the settlement of Napier. Local history is preserved in several small burying grounds throughout the hills, including Old Salem Cem and Brock Cem.

The distribution of settlements such as Henryville and Barnesville reflects a long-standing reliance on the ridge-and-valley topography for habitation. Notable landmarks like Newburg Ridge and Hollow Spring provide orientation for those researching family history or local land use. This map documents the persistent rural character of the region, where the network of unpaved roads and creeks remains much as it has for generations.
