1936 Map of Rally Hill

About this map

Rally Hill and the surrounding rural landscapes of Maury, Williamson, and Marshall counties are captured in this 1936 Tennessee Valley Authority and U. S. Geological Survey collaboration. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the Duck River at Jones Bend and an intricate network of creeks including Flat Creek and Rutherford Creek. This era of Middle Tennessee history is marked by a high density of local institutions, with schools like Choctaw Sch and Lee Buckner Sch Rural Hill Ch serving small agricultural hubs. Notable for genealogists are the numerous family burial grounds and community landmarks such as Hargrove Cem, Derryberry Cem, and Hatton Chapel. Early infrastructure is visible through labels like State Highway No 99 and a TVA Trans Line, illustrating the early stages of regional modernization while traditional settlements like Duplex and Pottsville remain central to the landscape.
