USGS Topo · Published 1965About this map
Meridian dominates this landscape as a bustling regional rail hub in the early 1920s, where the Mobile and Ohio RR and Alabama Great Southern RR converge. This industrial and social center is defined by institutional landmarks such as the East Mississippi Insane Asylum, Meridian College, and the Sanitarium. Beyond the urban grid, the topography rises toward Mt Barton and Poplar Springs, giving way to a network of rural communities anchored by family-named hubs like Herveys Store, Jacksons Store, and Jones Mill.
