1936 Map of Pleasantville

About this map

The settlement of Pleasantville serves as the focal point of this rural 1930s landscape, where the Hickman County line weaves through a network of creeks and hollows. This Tennessee Valley Authority advance sheet highlights a deeply localized social geography, with numerous community institutions such as Pleasantville School and Upper Sinking School positioned along the drainage of Cane Creek and Upper Sinking Creek. The presence of Farmers Exchange and several family-named burial grounds, including Beech Grove Cem and Elkins Cem, indicates a decentralized yet established agricultural society.
