1952 Map of Sunrise

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Big Swan Creek carves a deep path through this portion of the Highland Rim, defining a landscape of narrow hollows and steep ridges in southern Hickman County. The mid-century settlement pattern is clustered around small rural centers like Sunrise and Swan Bluff, where local life centered on the Sunrise Sch and Campground Ch. To the west, the Nashville Chattanooga & St Louis railway skirts the edge of Little Piney Creek, providing a vital industrial link through the timber-rich terrain. Family history is well-preserved through numerous upland burial grounds, including the Whiteside Cem and Anderson Cem. The transition from local transit to regional connectivity is marked by the presence of the Jim Mc Cord Highway in the north, while the southern boundary follows the Hickman and Lewis County line near Jenkins Falls and the geological openings of Big Cave and Bat Cave.
