2010 Map of Wartrace

About this map

Bell Buckle and Wartrace serve as the primary hubs in this central Tennessee landscape, connected by a network of rural roads and the rail corridor passing through Bowmans Cut. The area is notably dense with family and community burial grounds, such as the Hollywood Cemetery, Bethsalem Cemetery, and the Henry-Jarman Cemetery, reflecting a long history of local settlement and genealogical depth. The terrain is defined by the winding course of Garrison Fork and its numerous tributaries, including Kelly Creek and Wartrace Creek, which carve through various hollows like Justice Hollow and Puncheon Camp Hollow. To the southeast, the geography shifts toward Bedford Lake and Morgan Lake, where the Morgan Lake Dam regulates the local hydrology. This 2010 survey illustrates a region where small-town centers remain tied to their agricultural and topographical roots, with scattered communities like Happy Valley positioned along the historical transit lines of Bedford County.
