1936 Map of Greenwood
USGS Topo · Published 1936About this map
Greenwood stands as the central hub of this 1930s Mississippi Delta landscape, positioned where the Tallahatchie River and Yalobusha River converge to form the Yazoo River. The map reveals an intricate fluvial geography of meander scars and oxbows, including Old Orchard Lake and Sixmile Lake, which define the fertile but flood-prone terrain. The settlement pattern is deeply tied to the Yazoo and Mississippi Valley Railroad, with small landings and stations like Ruby Sta, Geren PO, and Money serving as critical nodes for the cotton economy.
