1952 Map of Mc Ewen

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

McEwen and the nearby village of Gorman serve as the primary anchors for this mid-century portrait of Humphreys County, defined by the east-west corridor of the Louisville And Nashville railroad. This transportation spine, paralleled by the Louisville And Nashville Broadway Of America, cuts through a landscape of deeply etched hollows such as Choate Hollow and Dunn Hollow. The map reveals a densely settled rural society where community life centered on local institutions like Liberty Sch and numerous country sanctuaries, including New Bethel Ch and Providence Ch. For genealogists, the map is particularly rich in family-named landmarks and burial grounds, ranging from the Anderson Cem to the McCollum Cem. In the northwest, the Humphreys County Airfield near Little Richland Creek marks the early post-war expansion of local infrastructure into the rural landscape.
