1966 Map of Amory SE

About this map

The Buttahatchie River meanders through the heart of this Monroe County landscape, defining the local geography as it flows past bottomlands and gravel-rich deposits. The map captures a rural Mississippi community in the mid-1960s, where small country churches like Buttahatchie Ch and Pleasant Grove Ch serve as local landmarks. The distribution of family burial grounds is particularly dense here, including the Marchbanks Cem, Cockerham Cem, and Sartor Cem, providing an invaluable spatial record for genealogical research. At the southern edge, the Honnell Mill site sits near Rock Bluff, reflecting the historical importance of water-powered industry and river-adjacent settlements. This era of land use is further marked by the presence of numerous Gravel Pits and early extraction efforts at several Gas Wells, showing the area's transition toward industrial resource management while maintaining its traditional crossroads character at the Community Center.
