1953 Map of Sardis

About this map

The Sardis Dam and the sprawling waters of Sardis Lake dominate the landscape of Panola County in this mid-century survey. The massive engineering project on the Little Tallahatchie River is shown in detail, including the spillway and the recreation areas at Lower Lake Beach and Willow Cove. The map documents a transition in the region's geography, where traditional river crossings like the Belmont Bridge and local drainages like the Mc Ivor Canal sit alongside the newly managed reservoir system.
