1965 Map of Richey

About this map

The Big Sunflower River winds through the heart of the Mississippi Delta in this mid-1960s survey, marking the borders of Sharkey, Washington, and Humphreys counties. The landscape is defined by the complex hydrology of the Yazoo Basin, where numerous waterways like Murphy Bayou, De Viney Bayou, and Straight Bayou weave through low-lying terrain. Human presence is clustered around small settlements such as Richey and Murphy, supported by a network of rural landmarks including Short Jerusalem Ch and Locust Grove Ch.
