1935 Map of Leedy

About this map

Burnsville serves as the central hub of this 1935 survey, situated at a major crossing point where the Southern Ry meets the Lee Highway U S No 72. The landscape is a network of rural schoolhouses and family churches, such as Gravel Hill Sch and Antioch Ch, reflecting the deep-rooted community structure of northeast Mississippi before mid-century modernization. The infrastructure of the Tennessee Valley Authority is notably present, with transmission lines cutting across the terrain toward the Yellow Creek drainage system.
