About this map

Forty-eight Creek and its many branches form the backbone of this Wayne County landscape, recorded during a 1936 field examination. The drainage patterns are intricate, with narrow hollows like Louse Hollow and Negro Hollow carving through the terrain. Evidence of a rural community structure is visible in the distribution of educational and religious sites, including Mt Hope Sch and Blowing Springs Sch. The road network is anchored by U S Highway No 64, which runs east-to-west alongside a prominent Power Transmission Line. Small family and community burial grounds, such as Walnut Grove Cem and Cole Cem, are scattered across the hillsides, often near small settlements like Simmons or the banks of the Green River. This Tennessee Valley Authority collaboration highlights a moment of infrastructure development, showing the intersection of new state highways and established rural landmarks.
