Highway 69 – 1940

from the collection of Brandi Hargrove

This photograph is from the WPA Roads Program and was taken on Highway 69, south of Decaturville on September 24, 1940.  It was saved by Frank Gracey Jarrell of Nashville, a WPA clerk and great-grandfather of Brandi Hargrove.


Today

Highway 69 in 1940 is now Three Way Road.  This picture appears to have been made at the intersection of what is now Three Way Road and Mount Carmel Road.  Here is what the intersection looks like today in Google Maps Street View.
