1965 Map of Dixie

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Black Creek meanders across this landscape on the border of Lamar and Forrest Counties, anchoring a network of small tributaries such as Tan Trough Creek, Tom Creek, and Little Sweatmans Creek. The settlement of Dixie serves as a local focal point, situated near several significant landmarks for genealogists including Clark Cem and Whites Chapel. The industrial and transport character of the mid-1960s is evidenced by the Illinois Central Gulf railroad line and various Gravel Pits found north of the town center. Local recreation and water resources are highlighted by Elks Lake and Sumrall Lake, which sit amidst the undulating terrain of southern Mississippi. The presence of Radio Towers and a highway Rest Area indicates the modernization of the corridor during this era of survey.
