1958 Map of Grand Bay SW

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Mississippi Sound dominates this late-1950s coastal survey, revealing a complex network of marshes, bayous, and barrier islands along the Jackson and Mobile County border. The western edge shows the inland development of the era, centered on the Jackson County Airport and the critical transportation corridor of the Louisville and Nashville railroad. The transition from the terrestrial The Prairie into the tidal wetlands is marked by intricate waterways like Bangs Bayou and the expansive Bangs Lake.
