1950 Map of Osage

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Cottage Grove and New Boston anchor this rural landscape in Henry County, where small agricultural settlements and country churches define the community structure of the mid-20th century. The terrain is shaped by the Middle Fork Obion River and the Obion River Canal, which cut through the southern portion of the quadrangle. Significant family and community history is preserved through a high density of small burial grounds, such as Cedar Hill Cem, Lampkins Cem, and Looney Cem, scattered across the undulating countryside. The presence of the Henry County Airport in the east marks a point of modern infrastructure amidst more traditional landmarks like Oak Hill Church and Gum Spring Church. To the west, Ward Bottom and the winding course of Walnut Fork Creek illustrate the natural drainage patterns that have long influenced local land use and road placement.
