1951 Map of Wartrace
USGS Topo · Published 1951About this map
Bell Buckle and Wartrace anchor this Bedford County landscape, serving as key rail hubs for the Nashville Chattanooga and St Louis line. The map highlights the educational roots of the region at the Webb School, while the surrounding countryside is defined by a dense network of family-named burial grounds including Hazel, Cortner, and Arnold cemeteries. The topography is shaped by the winding Garrison Fork and its tributaries, which carve through the terrain near Horse Mountain. The settlement pattern follows both the rail corridors and established routes like Fairfield Pike, connecting rural outposts such as Fairfield and the curiously named Bugscuffle. Remote areas like Hatchett Hollow and Justice Hollow reveal the localized geography of the early 1950s, providing a clear record of Bedford County's rural structure.
