Adjustments: In 1975, TN 69A south was extended south replacing more TN 69 to US 70 Camden
In 1983, it appears TN 69A was truncated slightly to TN 191 in Camden (zero mile marker is at this location).

TN 69A #1: Described in official route logs from 1954 through at lesat 1962 as thus:

1954 Official Route Log

The railroad depot was due south of the Natchez Trace Rd/Extension St intersection, so I believed this was a renumbering of TN 69 (moved to Dogwood/Cherokee Aves) and would've been Natchez Trace Rd, Extension St and Forrest Ave (then US 70) back to TN 69 Cherokee Ave. However, this 1963 map shows the opposite, with TN 69A using Dogwood/Cherokee
I don't know when TN 69A was decommissioned but it was after 1963 and no later than 1975 when TN 69 was moved well west of this area onto current US 641's alignment.
