1962 Map of Preston

About this map

Preston serves as a central hub in this corner of Mississippi, situated near the intersection of the county lines for Kemper Co, Noxubee Co, and Winston Co. The community is anchored by the Preston Sch and a Church of God, reflecting a landscape defined by small rural settlements and a network of country churches and family cemeteries. To the north, the small community of Handle and landmarks like the Vernon Mill Pond indicate an older era of water-driven industry and early land use.
