About this map

The Sunflower River and the Illinois Central railroad define the agricultural landscape of this Mississippi Delta region, where the borders of Humphreys, Washington, and Sharkey counties converge. The map documents a complex system of drainage ditches and bayous, including Beasley Bayou and Murphy Bayou, which support the intensive cultivation of the bottomlands. Numerous landings along the river, such as Story Ldg and Panther Bend Ldg, reflect a transition from water-based transport to rail and road networks.
