1972 Map of Ethel North

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The town of Ethel anchors the southern portion of this central Mississippi landscape, situated at the junction of the Illinois Central railroad and local rural routes. Much of the terrain is defined by the winding course of the Yockanookany River and its numerous tributaries, including Zilpha Creek, Cole Creek, and Black Creek. The Natchez Trace Parkway cuts a prominent north-south path through the center of the sheet, tracing the historic travel corridor through Attala County. The map reveals a deeply rooted rural community, marked by a high density of country churches and small burial grounds. Local landmarks like the Greenlee Sch and Hannah Cem suggest the long-standing family settlements that have shaped this region. To the north, the terrain remains predominantly undeveloped, with narrow creek bottoms like Panther Creek and Holly Branch threading through the timbered hills.
