1962 Map of Owl Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

The Choctaw Indian Reservation dominates the center of this Mississippi landscape, documenting a significant cultural geography along the border of Neshoba and Kemper counties. Rural life in the early 1960s is centered around a network of country churches and schools, such as the Bogue Chitto Indian Sch and Long Dale Sch. The topography is defined by the winding paths of Bogue Chitto Creek and Owl Creek, which feed into numerous smaller branches like Sorghum Branch and Cow Creek. Small settlements and family landmarks such as Forestdale, Bond, and Crossroads are connected by a web of local roads and unimproved trails. Notable points of interest for local history include the Sandtown Lookout Tower and a high density of small burial grounds, including Roundtree Cem and the Long Cem, which help locate early family homesteads in this wooded terrain.
