1950 Map of Jackson North

About this map

Jackson anchors this 1950 topographical study, showing the city's northward expansion toward the Middle Fork Forked Deer River. The urban core includes landmarks like Lane College, Jackson High Sch, and the General Hospital, while the surrounding countryside is defined by a dense network of family-named roads such as Bedford White Road and Passmore Lane. The landscape reflects a mid-century balance of industry and community, with Brick Kilns and an Oil Well situated near rural congregations like Bible Grove Ch and Sand Hill Ch.
