1935 Map of Philipp

USGS Topo · Published 1935

About this map

Tippo Bayou and the Tallahatchie River wind through this mid-1930s landscape of the Mississippi Delta, where extensive Levee systems and oxbow lakes like Fish Lake and Hampton Lake define the bottomland. The Yazoo and Mississippi Valley RR provides a critical transportation spine, connecting small agricultural centers such as Philipp and Locopolis. The map reveals a dense network of local institutions, including the Whole Truth Ch, Lakeside Ch, and the Rosenwald Sch, reflecting the community structure of the era. To the east, the terrain rises toward Stonefield Hill and Dogwood Flats, where the Tallahatchie Boy Scout Camp is located near the Tallahatchie and Grenada county line. The distribution of schools like Holly Grove Sch and Cowart Sch illustrates the rural settlement patterns before modern consolidation.
