1950 Map of Puryear

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The Seaboard railroad corridor anchors the settlement of Puryear in this mid-century portrait of Henry County, Tennessee, near the Kentucky border. At this time, the community was centered around the Puryear Sch, a local substation, and the nearby Union Grove Church. To the east, Conyersville and Foundry Hill serve as smaller rural nodes amidst a landscape defined by the Tenn Valley Divide. This topographic survey captures a dense network of family history markers, including the Underwood Cem, Bradley Cem, and Old Antioch Cem. The hydrological character of the region is well-defined by the Clarks River and the North Fork Blood River, which carve through the terrain as it transitions toward the North Fork Obion River in the south.
