About this map

The Homochitto River snakes through this landscape of the early 1960s, cutting through the dense timberlands of the Homochitto National Forest across the borders of Adams, Franklin, Wilkinson, and Amite counties. The region shows a significant mid-century industrial presence, with numerous petroleum developments such as the Locust Hill Oil Field, Dry Bayou Oil Field, and the White Apple Oil Field dotted throughout the hills. The Illinois Central Railroad serves as a primary transportation artery, connecting settlements like Crosby, Knoxville, and Rosetta.
