1972 Map of Houlka

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Houlka stands as the primary hub in this early 1970s survey, where the convergence of the Gulf Mobile and Ohio and Illinois Central railroads shaped the local economy. The landscape is defined by the winding paths of the Skuna River and Mud Creek, which flow through a region marked by deep-rooted family settlements and country congregations. To the north, the community of Wallfield and the Beckham Sch indicate the rural social structure of the era. The mapping of cemeteries like Cooke Cem and Indian Creek Cem, alongside numerous churches such as Schooner Valley Ch and Washington Ch, provides essential locations for genealogists. This period captures the traditional agricultural layout of the Pontotoc and Chickasaw County border before modern land-use changes altered the rural character.
