1936 Map of Wartrace
USGS Topo · Published 1936About this map
The Nashville Chattanooga and St Louis railway serves as the backbone of this 1936 Bedford County landscape, connecting the prominent rail towns of Bell Buckle and Wartrace. These settlements are hubs of activity, featuring visible infrastructure like a Water Tank and the well-known Webb Sch. Beyond the rails, the terrain is defined by the winding waters of Garrison Fork and Wartrace Creek, where smaller communities like Fairfield and Kellartown are established. This map is particularly dense with genealogical data, documenting numerous family landmarks including the Hazel Cem, Old Salem Cem, and Hollywood Cem. The presence of several transmission lines, including the State Membership Corp Transmission Line, signals the arrival of the Tennessee Valley Authority's modernization efforts in rural middle Tennessee during the mid-1930s.
