1983 Map of Crenshaw South

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

The lowlands of northwestern Mississippi are defined by a complex network of bayous and creeks in this 1983 survey. This landscape, straddling the Quitman Co Panola Co line, centers on the towns of Sledge and Crenshaw, where the Illinois Central Gulf railroad provided a vital corridor for commerce and transport. The terrain is marked by numerous water bodies like Yellow Lake and Pruit Lake, and the dense drainage patterns of Hope Bayou and Pecan Bayou suggest the heavy alluvial nature of the region. Scattered throughout the rural areas are local landmarks that served as community hubs, including Bethel Ch, Phillips Chapel, and Easley Ch. To the south, the wetland environment becomes more pronounced near Chinquapin Brake, illustrating the transition from agricultural tracts to the native brakes and lakes of the Delta region.
