About this map

Tranquillity sits at the center of this rural landscape, where a network of ridge roads and valley streams defines the local geography. The area's settlement pattern is anchored by small community centers like Boggess Crossroad, Sewee, and Fiketon, which are connected by a dense grid of county roads. The importance of local industry and education to the region's heritage is evident through labels such as Collins Mill and Pisgah Academy Rd.

Water sources are a primary feature of the terrain, with Big Sewee Cr and Little Sewee Cr flowing through the valleys. Numerous natural springs, including Lockmiller Springs, Simpson Spring, and Thomas Spring, are named on the map, suggesting their historical significance to the local farms. Prominent elevations such as Brickell Ridge and Newman Ridge flank the lowland drainages of Rogers Creek and Clearwater Br, illustrating the rhythmic topography of this part of Tennessee.
