USGS Topo · Published 1981About this map
The town of Hornsby serves as the focal point of this mid-century landscape, situated where the Illinois Central railroad cuts through the timbered hills and bottomlands of West Tennessee. The geography is defined by the winding course of the Hatchie River and its expansive floodplain known as The Big Bottom. This 1950 survey, which includes purple photorevisions from 1978, illustrates a rural society deeply rooted in small church and school districts.
