1963 Map of De Kalb
USGS Topo · Published 1964About this map
De Kalb serves as the central hub of this Mississippi landscape, where local life centered around rural churches and small-scale industry in the early 1960s. The map reveals a community structured by faith and family history, evidenced by Bloomfield Ch and its Bloomfield Ch Cem, alongside Jerusalem Ch and the McRae Cem. The local economy of the time is visible through features like Sciple Mill on Indian Branch and a scattering of gravel pits. The transport network shows signs of change, most notably the Old Railroad Grade running through the southeastern portion near Snoody Creek. Numerous watercourses, including the Sucarnoochee Creek and Running Tiger Creek, carve through the terrain, punctuated by landmarks such as Bateman Lake and the Spring Hill Ch which anchor the surrounding homesteads and woodlands.
