1945 Map of Norwood
USGS Topo · Published 1945About this map
Norwood and Wilson serve as primary hubs along the Illinois Central (Yazoo and Mississippi Valley) railroad corridor, marking a landscape defined by its rural community structure in the mid-1940s. The area is heavily marked by local institutions like Brooks Chapel Sch & Ch, Morning Glory Ch, and the Industrial Training Sch near Clinton. The drainage pattern is complex, with the Comite River and its numerous tributaries such as Beecham Bayou Creek and Richland Creek carving through the terrain. This map captures the transition from the Mississippi-Louisiana border into East Feliciana Parish, showing a network of rural roads like State Highway 16 On that connected dispersed family farms and community centers such as Antioch Ch and Asbury Sch.
