USGS Topo · Published 1966About this map
The Illinois Central railroad serves as the primary spine for this Mississippi-Tennessee borderland, cutting diagonally through the countryside to connect Lamar and Michigan City. This mid-1960s survey reveals a landscape deeply connected to local genealogy and community life, marked by a high density of family and church-affiliated burial grounds. From the Hickory Hill Cem near the center of the sheet to the Hardaway Cem and Thompson Cem further south, these sites indicate long-established landholdings.
