1961 Map of Medon

About this map

Medon serves as a primary rail point in this landscape where the Illinois Central and Gulf Mobile and Ohio railroads parallel the creek bottoms. The topography is defined by the convergence of several waterways, including Clover Creek and Sandy Creek, creating a network of ridges where many of the area's rural institutions are located. Further south, the map details the northern reaches of Chickasaw State Park, characterized by recreational water bodies like Lake Placid and Scott Lake.
