1982 Map of Lake Cormorant

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

The Mississippi River floodplain defines this tri-state border region, where the winding waters of Horn Lake and Mud Lake mark the boundaries between Mississippi and Tennessee. During the early 1980s, the landscape was a mix of fertile delta agriculture and growing infrastructure, anchored by the Illinois Central Gulf railroad line. Small community centers such as Walls, Glover, and Lake Cormorant appear alongside the intricate drainage patterns of Dead Slough and Negro Slough. The presence of the Twinkle Town Landing Field and a significant Pipe Line Compressor Station suggests an era of increasing industrial and utility development in the rural South. Geographers will note the complex hydrology where Jackson Creek and Johnson Creek meet the low-lying bayous and ponds of the Mississippi bottomlands.
