1987 Map of Buena Vista

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Buena Vista and the southern edge of Okolona anchor this landscape during the mid-1980s, where the western reaches of the Tombigbee National Forest meet a network of creek bottoms and rural farmsteads. The terrain is defined by the winding course of Chuquatonchee Creek and its many tributaries, including Mattubby Creek, Jolly Creek, and Bogue Culley. This map provides a detailed view of the rural religious and social fabric of Chickasaw County, documenting numerous local congregations such as Boone Ch, Palestine Ch, and Red Bud Ch. Genealogists will find particular value in the several family-named burial sites and churchyards, including the Pulliam Cem, Snow Cem, and the Jolly Ch Cem. Local industry is represented by the Claypits located north of Buena Vista, suggesting the persistence of small-scale resource extraction in the area.
