About this map

The Piney River meanders through the heart of the Tennessee hills in this 1936 survey, which highlights the rural infrastructure of the era between the Hickman and Dickson county line. The settlement of Pinewood serves as a local hub, supported by the nearby Pinewood Sch and Humble Ch. The map reveals a landscape defined by its hollows—such as Texas Hollow and Chalkbank Hollow—and a dense network of country schools, including Cedar Hill Sch, Plunders Creek Sch, and Big Spring Creek Sch, illustrating the dispersed community structure of pre-war middle Tennessee. Technological transitions are evident along the southern edge of the sheet, where an Emergency Landing Field and Airway Beacon are positioned near the Nashville Chattanooga and St Louis rail line. This proximity of early aviation infrastructure to the established railroad and the local Camp Ground Sch points to a moment of significant transport modernization in an otherwise traditional agrarian setting.
