1949 Map of Perryville

About this map

Kentucky Lake and the Tennessee River dominate this West Tennessee landscape, where the confluence of the Beech River at Perryville once signaled a vital point of commerce and river transport. Published in the late 1970s from earlier surveys, the map documents the shoreline development and the numerous landings, such as Blunts Landing and Jennings Landing, that serviced the river traffic before and after the reservoir's creation. Inland, the seat of Decaturville serves as the primary upland settlement, while the terrain to the southeast transitions into the densely wooded ridges known as The Coalings.
