1943 Map of Oxford
USGS Topo · Published 1945About this map
The University of Mississippi and the city of Oxford serve as the focal point of this wartime survey, which captures Lafayette County during a period of significant hydraulic and infrastructure change. To the northwest, the recently filled Sardis Reservoir has reshaped the Tallahatchie River valley, with its normal pool and flood stage elevations clearly marked near Toby Tubby Creek. This landscape is defined by a dense network of rural institutions, including the College Hill settlement and numerous family-named landmarks such as Buford Chapel and Davidson Sch.
