1974 Map of Americus

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Americus anchors this mid-1970s topographic study of the Loutre River valley, an area defined by its dense network of small family cemeteries and seasonal drainage branches. The landscape is heavily marked by rural genealogy, featuring numerous burial grounds such as Bryant Cem, Hunter Cem, and Bush Cem scattered among the uplands. The Loutre River and its many tributaries, including Pinch Creek, Dishwater Creek, and Marrow Branch, dictate the settlement pattern, which is predominantly agricultural with pockets of industrial activity like the Claypit in the southwest corner.
