1957 Map of Philipp

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The Tallahatchie River and Tippo Bayou dominate this landscape, winding through a patchwork of agricultural lands and wetlands at the intersection of Tallahatchie, Leflore, and Grenada counties. The Illinois Central Railroad serves as a primary transport spine, connecting the community of Philipp and the rail junction at Sisters Junction to the broader Mississippi Delta. This 1950s survey captures a rural social structure defined by numerous country churches and schools, such as Rosenwald Sch & Ch and Solomon Chapel Sch & Ch, which reflect the localized settlement patterns of the era.
