1980 Map of Pocahontas

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Pocahontas stands at the intersection of the Illinois Central Gulf Railroad and local thoroughfares north of Jackson, anchored by the ancient site preserved at Pocahontas Mounds Roadside Park. This 1980 survey reveals a rural landscape in transition, where family-named landmarks like Tinnin Cem and Roberts Cem sit alongside emerging suburban developments like Presidential Hills. The terrain is defined by the winding course of Bogue Chitto Creek and Limekiln Creek, which drain a region dotted with numerous rural congregations including Wells Chapel, St Paul Ch, and Bakers Grove Ch. Industrial activity is evident in several Sandpits and a Gravel Pit near County Line Ch, while the southern edge of the map features the modern path of the Natchez Trace Parkway as it bypasses the older agricultural settlements of Tinnin and Green Crossing.
