1952 Map of Laconia

About this map

Joyners Camp Ground and the curiously named Yum Yum anchor this Fayette County landscape, which is defined by extensive water management and small rural communities. The map documents a transition in the local hydrography, where the natural winding of Big Muddy Creek and the Loosahatchie River met the engineered efficiency of the Big Muddy Canal and the Loosahatchie River Canal. This network of waterways suggests a landscape heavily modified for drainage and agriculture during the mid-century.
