1947 Map of Nashville

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

Nashville serves as the central hub of this 1947 topographical study, which illustrates the deeply dissected terrain of Brown County before the era of modern development. The map details a landscape defined by sharp ridges and narrow hollows, such as Weddle Ridge and Crouch Hollow, where early roads follow the winding paths of the Salt Creek and its many branches. The drainage pattern of the North Fork Salt Creek dictates the placement of crossroads like Gnaw Bone and Clarksdale.
