About this map

The Wheeler Reservoir defines the southwestern edge of this 1938 survey, illustrating the transformation of the Tennessee River valley during the early Tennessee Valley Authority era. The landscape is a transition from the river bottomlands at Hantie Bottoms to the established agricultural communities inland. The Bee Line Highway runs north-to-south, serving as a primary corridor through Tanner and past Stewarts Store. In the southeast, the historic layout of Mooresville and nearby Belle Mina is visible, including the Mooresville and Belle Mina Sch. Numerous family-named landmarks such as the Anderson Plantation and Murphree Place are documented, along with community focal points like Nazareth Ch and New Zion Ch. The presence of the Louisville and Nashville and Southern railroads highlights the vital transportation network supporting the region's rural economy.
