1950 Map of Burnsville

About this map

The railroad settlement of Burnsville serves as the focal point of this northeast Mississippi landscape, where the Southern and Illinois Central rail lines converge. The surrounding terrain in Tishomingo Co and Alcorn Co is defined by a sophisticated water management system, including the Yellow Creek Drainage Canal and Coke Drainage Canal, which were engineered to regulate the low-lying areas. This 1950s-era geography reflects a deeply rooted rural community, marked by numerous local landmarks such as Lambert Chapel School and Antioch Ch.
