1972 Map of Louisville North

About this map

The Tombigbee National Forest dominates the northern landscape of this Winston County survey, where the Noxubee River and Little Noxubee River carve through a heavily wooded terrain. This region preserves a mix of rural infrastructure and forest management, evidenced by the Lookout Tower and scattered family landmarks like Tanksley Cem and Noxubee Hill Cem. To the south, the city of Louisville serves as a hub of activity, with its residential streets like Pontotoc St and Columbus Ave clearly delineated near the Louisville-Winston County Airport. The industrial and transit character of the era is defined by the Illinois Central Gulf railroad line, which passes through McMillan and Greenboro, connecting local Kilns and timber resources to wider markets. Small country congregations such as West Union Ch and Union Chapel mark the persistent rural communities nestled between the forest boundary and the expanding town center.
