1964 Map of Linwood

About this map

The Choctaw Meridian defines the western edge of this 1964 survey, marking a primary survey line that runs through the hilly drainage basins of Yazoo County. Small rural communities like Linwood and Midway anchor a landscape dominated by a network of creeks, including Pickett Creek, Cypress Creek, and Burg Creek. The settlement pattern is characterized by scattered churches and cemeteries, many bearing family names that serve as vital leads for genealogical research.
