1972 Map of Tullahoma

About this map

The city of Tullahoma serves as the focal point of this regional study, showing a developed urban center transitioning into the sprawling grounds of the Arnold Air Force Base. To the south, the landscape is defined by the winding course of the Elk River and the significant reach of Tims Ford Lake, which borders settlements like Estill Springs and Eastbrook. The map captures a moment of institutional and agricultural development, featuring the Highland Rim Experimental Farm and the Tennessee Correction Academy. Transportation is anchored by the Louisville and Nashville railroad corridor and the Lynchburg Highway. Local history is well-preserved through numerous family-named burial grounds including Pylant Cem, Gault Cem, and Chastain Cem, alongside rural congregations like New Center Grove Ch and Allen Chapel.
