1958 Map of Slayden

About this map

Slayden and Marion anchor this mid-century view of the Tennessee hill country along the border of Montgomery and Dickson counties. The landscape is defined by a dense network of hollows and ridges, such as Sullivan Ridge and Woods Valley, where small rural communities are interconnected by winding roads. Long-established family ties are evident in the numerous burial grounds scattered throughout the area, including Schmittou Cem, Keele Cem, and Groves Cem.
