1968 Map of Johns

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Johns sits at the heart of this rural Rankin Co. landscape, serving as a focal point for local families near the Johns Cem and Sylvarena Ch. The 1968 terrain is defined by a series of winding creeks, including Walters Creek, Purvis Creek, and Puckett Creek, which carve through the wooded hillsides. High points like Indian Mound Hill and the Shiloh Lookout Tower provide strategic vantage points over the surrounding timberland. Small settlements and landmarks such as Rufus and Mountain Ridge Ch are connected by a network of unimproved roads and state routes, reflecting the mid-century rural character of central Mississippi. Man-made features like Diamond D Lake and the nearby Gravel Pit indicate how the local economy and environment were shaped by both recreation and resource extraction during this era.
