About this map

Stones River and its winding branches define this Rutherford County landscape, which includes the Stones River National Battlefield near the edge of Murfreesboro. The map captures a transition between residential expansion and established rural communities such as Old Jefferson and Walterhill. The river's path is heavily utilized for public recreation, evidenced by the Mona Recreation Area and West Fork Rec Area along the banks of J Percy Priest Lake.

For those researching family history, several small landmarks and cemeteries are documented, including Hickory Grove Cem and the Bethel Sch. The infrastructure of the area shows a shift toward modern facilities with the inclusion of the VA Hospital and Municipal Airport, while older settlements like Leanna and Florence retain their character amidst the network of historic routes like Jefferson Pike and Old Nashville Highway.
