FEATURES SHOWN ON THE MAP
The Millington 7.5-minute map shows cities and towns, roads, paths, railroads, utilities and energy infrastructure, rivers, creeks, elevation contour lines, public land survey lines, county, state, and other administrative boundaries as they existed at the time of the survey in 1969 and 1971. All known structures (houses, businesses, churches, schools, barns, cabins, etc) are also shown.

A VALUABLE HISTORICAL RECORD
This map is from the 7.5-minute series, the most detailed series that is widely available from the USGS. The 1971 Millington map is a valuable historical record for the area. It contains some placenames and features that have been dropped from more recent maps.

The map was photorevised in 1993. Any features that changed or were added between the original edition year of 1971 and the photorevision year of 1993 are overlayed in purple. The purple overlay provides an excellent view of the fast-growing and changing areas within the quad boundary.
