1962 Map of Moscow

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Kemper County’s rolling landscape is defined by the headwaters of the Chickasawhay Creek and its many tributaries, such as Tullachula Creek and Pawticfaw Creek. The settlement of Moscow serves as a local hub, anchored by the West Kemper Ch and nearby Mt Zion Ch. This 1962 field-checked record captures the area as a network of small family farms and timberlands before more modern developments altered the rural road patterns. The mapping shows an extensive list of community centers that were vital to the era, including the Little Rock Sch and numerous country churches like Shiloh Ch and Big Oak Ch. Genealogists will find particular value in the meticulous marking of family-named burial grounds like McDonald Cem, Talbert Cem, and the Linwood Cem. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, the community of Damascus and the Mt Pleasant Ch cluster near the banks of Penders Creek, illustrating how closely these early Mississippi settlements followed the local drainage systems.
