1980 Map of New Byram

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The Pearl River forms the eastern boundary of this Hinds County landscape, winding through Wansley Bend as it separates the region from Rankin County. During the late 1970s and early 1980s, the area around New Byram shows a mix of rural community life and industrial utility, anchored by the Illinois Central Gulf railroad. Local landmarks include the Raymond Lookout Tower and a prominent Fish Hatchery in the southwest. The geography is punctuated by numerous small bodies of water like Lake Catherine and Lake Wyndale, while community nodes are defined by several country churches, including Mt Salem Ch and Bethesda Ch. The presence of multiple Gravel Pits and a Sandpit near the river indicates the extractive industries active during this period of development south of Jackson.
