1950 Map of Jackson South

About this map

Jackson anchors the northern edge of this Madison County survey, where the South Fork Forked Deer River defines the landscape's industrial and natural character. The city's mid-century educational landscape is well-represented by Lambuth College and Union University, while the region's heavy infrastructure is visible at Frogmoor Yards and Iselin Station. The transition from urban to rural south of the river reveals a network of railroad towns and industrial hubs like Bemis, along with traditional community centers such as Malesus and East Union.
