USGS Topo · Published 1945About this map
Fort Adams and the sprawling plantation lands of Mississippi River bottomlands define this 1939 survey, capturing a complex riverine landscape on the eve of World War II. The map documents an intensive agrarian economy organized around named landings and estates, such as Artonish, Lochdale Plantation, and White Vine Plantation. The intricate network of waterways including Old River, the Buffalo River, and Lake Mary reflects a region shaped by the shifting course of the great river, with Turnbull Island and Palmetto Point marking significant meanders.
