About this map

Tuckers Crossroads and the surrounding Wilson County landscape are defined by a network of rural routes and the branching headwaters of Jennings Fork. The terrain is punctuated by significant landmarks like Jennings Knob and Hankins Hill, which rise above the creek valleys of Spring Creek and Dry Fork Cr. This 2022 survey captures the modern rural layout of settlements such as Linwood, Greenwood, and Shop Springs, where small family cemeteries and historic crossroads remain central to the community's geographic identity.

Genealogists will find notable burial sites scattered throughout the district, including White Cem, Bethany Cem, and Bethlehem Cem. The road network, featuring historic thoroughfares like Rome Pike and Trousdale Ferry Pike, reveals how early travel routes influenced the placement of these crossroads communities. The intricate drainage of the W Prong Jennings Fork and E Prong Jennings Fork highlights the natural hydrology that shaped the agricultural development of this central Tennessee region.
