1963 Map of Grand Gulf

About this map

Grand Gulf stands as a focal point along the eastern bluffs in this early 1960s survey, marking a site where river navigation meets significant Civil War history. The Grand Gulf Military Monument preserves the memory of this tactical landscape, overlooking a complex riverine environment defined by the Mississippi River and the meandering Big Black River. Large alluvial landmasses like Togo Island and Middle Ground Island illustrate the shifting nature of the state boundary, where numerous oxbow lakes such as Palmyra Lake and Yucatan Lake remain as remnants of former river channels.
