1964 Map of Newport

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Newport sits at the heart of this mid-1960s landscape, where the rural topography of the Attala Co Madison Co border is defined by a dense network of creek drainages and small community landmarks. The map documents an area deeply rooted in local history, featuring the Old Indian Boundary slicing across the terrain and an Old Railroad Grade tracing a former transportation corridor. The settlement pattern is largely ecclesiastical and familial, evidenced by numerous country churches such as New Canyon Ch and Spring Grove Ch, alongside family-named burial grounds like Dickerson Cem and Wyatt Cem. A prominent Sallis Lookout Tower overlooks the wooded ridges, while the winding course of Seneasha Creek and its tributaries like Bolanlusha Creek carve through the agricultural and timbered lands of central Mississippi.
