2019 Map of La Vergne

About this map

The sprawling waters of the J Percy Priest Reservoir dominate this 2019 survey, illustrating the modern geography of the Davidson and Rutherford county lines. The town of La Vergne sits at the heart of a residential landscape that has grown around natural features like Hurricane Creek and the Sinking Creek drainage. For genealogists, the map is a vital record of numerous small family burial grounds that persist amidst modern development, including Boner Cem, Richeson Cem, and Castleman-Bruer Cem. The industrial and transportation footprint is anchored by the Smyrna Airport in the southeast, while the northern reaches provide recreational access through the Volunteer Trail and the preserved waters of Couchville Lake. This map captures a suburban Tennessee landscape defined by the balance between its agrarian past and its contemporary role as a residential hub near Nashville.
