1957 Map of Philipp

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

The Illinois Central railroad corridor anchors this survey of the Mississippi Delta’s eastern edge, where the flat, swampy bottomlands of the Tallahatchie River meet the rising hills of the Loess Bluffs. Small farming communities and railroad stops like Philipp, Tippo, and Loopolis are connected by a dense network of country churches and schools that served a decentralized rural population. The landscape is defined by its water, from the winding oxbows of Hampton Lake and Alligator Lake to the engineered straightness of river cut-offs.
