1962 Map of Preston

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

The community of Preston and the rural junction of Handle anchor this 1962 landscape where the borders of Winston, Noxubee, and Kemper counties converge. This interior region of Mississippi is defined by its social hubs of country churches and family-named cemeteries, including Good Hope Ch, Mt Hebron Ch, and the Mt Pisgah Cem. The terrain is deeply carved by waterways such as Hashuqua Creek and Dancing Rabbit Creek, with Vernon Mill Pond suggesting earlier small-scale water-powered industry at the northern edge of the sheet.
