1994 Map of Hunters Point

About this map

The Cumberland River carves a deep, winding path through Wilson, Sumner, and Trousdale counties, defining the landscape via sharp oxbows like Belotes Bend and Cairo Bend. By the mid-1990s, the impoundment of Old Hickory Lake had transformed these waterways into a complex system of backwaters and inlets, submerged shorelines, and prominent features like Cunningham Island. Along the northern banks, Bledsoe Creek State Park preserves the riverfront near the historic settlement of Cairo, where several cemeteries and the Cairo Ch mark long-standing community roots.
