1956 Map of Portland
USGS Topo · Published 1981About this map
The boundary between Robertson Co and Sumner Co divides a landscape defined by rolling agricultural uplands and the drainage basin of the Red River. The town of Portland serves as the primary regional hub, where the Louisville and Nashville railroad runs parallel to the highway network, linking several smaller outlying communities like Mitchellville and New Deal. The 1950s era of this survey shows a densely settled rural society anchored by numerous country churches, including Byram Chapel and Mt Pleasant Ch, along with local educational centers such as Oakmont Sch.
