2016 Map of Williamsport

About this map

Duck River winds through the heart of Maury County, defining the landscape around Williamsport and Santa Fe. This area is characterized by high bluffs and numerous creek valleys, such as Poplar Creek and Greenlick Creek, which shaped early Tennessee settlement patterns. The map documents a historical landscape transition, evidenced by the proximity of heritage sites like Fikes Mill and Foster Chapel to mid-century industrial features like the Hooker Chemical Ponds. To the north, the Natchez Trace Parkway and National Scenic Trail follows the ancient ridge-top route, passing landmarks such as Akin Ridge. Genealogy researchers will find significant value in the dense distribution of family-named cemeteries, including the McKennon and Pollard burial grounds, which anchor the history of rural communities like Sawdust and Arkland.
