About this map

Shiloh National Cemetery and the surrounding battlefield landscape dominate the southern portion of this Hardin County survey. The map records a complex network of memorial and military geography, including Hornets Nest, Dill Branch, and roads named Confederate Rd, Sherman Rd, and Cavalry Rd. These labels reflect the enduring historical significance of the 1862 conflict at Pittsburg Landing.

Along the Tennessee River, the transition from river-based commerce to modern infrastructure is visible. Traditional river access points like Crump Landing, Walkers Landing, and Buells Landing persist alongside significant crossings such as the Lemert Bridge and Hagy Bridge. The river's path is marked by hazards and features like Diamond Shoals and Wolf Island, while the surrounding bottomlands are etched with numerous sloughs, including Hardin Slough and Gammill Slough, illustrating the hydrological character of the Tennessee Valley.
