J Percy Priest Reservoir dominates the northern landscape of this region where Davidson, Wilson, and Rutherford counties meet. The reservoir's irregular shoreline surrounds several small communities, including Couchville and Rural Hill, while the southern half of the sheet is defined by the suburban and industrial expansion of La Vergne and Smyrna. For genealogists, the map is remarkably dense with family burial grounds, preserving the locations of the Castleman-Bruer Cem, Tilgham Cem, and Holloway Cem, among many others. The infrastructure of the Smyrna Airport and the historical corridor of Murfreesboro Rd illustrate the transit-driven development that has shaped this corridor between Nashville and Murfreesboro.
