1913 Map of Hollow Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1929

About this map

Cumberland Watershed and Tennessee Watershed divides define the high ridges and deep hollows of this central Tennessee landscape, where small agricultural communities thrived just before the First World War. The terrain transitions from the broken hills of Dickens Ridge and Raines Ridge to the flat, open reaches known as the Barrens. Local life is anchored by a dense network of one-room schoolhouses like Gnat Hill School, Farrar Hill School, and Ragsdale School, alongside country gathering points like Wisers Store. The Nashville Chattanooga and St Louis RR cuts through the southeastern corner, while the Duck River and Barren Fork drain the diverse topography. From the vanished commerce at Hickersons Store to the rural quiet of Noah and Beech Grove, the map captures a period of early 20th-century settlement before modern infrastructure transformed these county lines.
