1983 Map of Curtis Station

About this map

The Old Indian Treaty Boundary cuts diagonally through this landscape, dividing a network of drainage ditches and bayous along the Quitman and Panola county line. This 1983 survey shows a heavily managed agricultural terrain characterized by spoil banks and levees, where the complex hydrology includes Bobo Bayou, Ash Log Bayou, and Fourmile Bayou. Small rural nodes like Curtis Station and Locke Station appear alongside numerous community churches, such as Pilgrims Rest Ch and Goodwill Ch, which serve as vital landmarks for genealogists tracing family histories in the Mississippi Delta.
