1966 Map of Trezevant West

About this map

The South Fork Obion River meanders across this rural landscape where the borders of Weakley, Carroll, and Gibson Counties converge. Surveyed in the mid-1960s with updates through the 1980s, the map reveals a settlement pattern defined by small rural hubs such as Staffords Store, Holly Leaf, and the established town of Christmasville. The area's social fabric is anchored by a dense network of country churches, including New Prospect Ch, Pilgrims Rest Ch, and Republican Grove Ch, many of which are accompanied by local cemeteries. Transportation is dominated by the Seaboard rail line cutting through the southeast corner near Trezevant, while numerous small waterways like Bear Creek, Plum Creek, and Cane Creek drain the wooded bottomlands and agricultural fields that characterize this West Tennessee region.
