1936 Map of Mansfield

About this map

The Tennessee Basin Divide snakes through this 1930s landscape of Henry and Carroll Counties, separating the complex drainage networks that define the local topography. This survey, compiled from aerial photographs by the Tennessee Valley Authority and USGS, reveals a rural economy centered on the Louisville and Nashville Railroad and the Nashville Chattanooga and St Louis Railroad. Small communities like Mansfield and Van Dyke serve as focal points for a countryside dense with social infrastructure. The map records numerous family-named landmarks and institutions, including the Union Grove Ch, Cochran Grove Sch, and Key Cem. These features, along with the distinct paths of West Sandy Creek and Bear Creek, illustrate a period of transition as the region moved toward more formalized highway transport, represented here by Tenn Highway No 76.
