1963 Map of Cayuga

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Natchez Trace Parkway bisects this landscape, tracing a line through the rolling creek-carved terrain where Claiborne and Hinds counties meet. The small settlement of Cayuga serves as a central hub, surrounded by a high density of family and community landmarks that speak to the area's deep genealogical roots. Numerous burial sites, including Belmont Cem, Cayuga Cem, and the Henderson Cem, are scattered along the drainage basins of Fivemile Creek and Jones Creek. To the northwest, the Big Black River forms a wide alluvial plain, marked by an Indian Mound that suggests ancient habitation long before the establishment of late-century communities like Newman and Hubbard. The presence of several rural institutions, such as Poplar Grove Ch and Hubbard Sch, illustrates the early 1960s social geography of this corner of Mississippi.
