Coldwater River and the Yazoo and Mississippi Valley RR define the settlement patterns of the Mississippi Delta in this early 1930s survey. The landscape is a dense network of oxbow lakes and bayous, including curiosities like Flea Harbor Lake and Deadman Lake, reflecting the region's complex hydrological history before modern flood control. This map is particularly rich for genealogical research, documenting a high density of rural institutions such as Swan Lake College, the County Farm, and numerous local landmarks like Strangers Rest Ch, Jazzland Ch, and Posey Mound.
