Una Community

Smith Springs Rd & Old Murfreesboro Rd, Nashville, TN , USA
 
 
The Una community developed around the crossroads of Smith springs road and Old Murfreesboro Pike in the early 19th century. The local postmaster changed the community name from Rowesdale, or Rosedale, to Una in 1882, honoring a Peabody college student much loved by local residents. Home to schools, churches, a general store, and a service station, this bustling tightly-knit rural community was supplanted by suburban development by the end of the 20th century. Sponsored by Metro Council member Vivian Wilhoite
