1964 Map of Lanham

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Bogue Homo flows through this Mississippi landscape, providing a central drainage for numerous tributaries like Tiger Branch and Chinquapin Creek. The area is defined by its rural connectivity and public lands, with a significant portion of the territory falling within the De Soto National Forest. The Illinois Central Gulf railroad cuts through the western section of the map, passing the settlement of Lanham. Local community life is evidenced by several country churches and burial sites, including Mt Moriah Ch, Good Hope Ch, and the Tucker Cem. Public resources and conservation efforts are prominent, marked by the presence of a Fish Hatchery, Jones County Lake, and the Point Laurel Lookout Tower, which likely served as a critical fire watch point for the surrounding timberlands during this mid-century period.
