1955 Map of Sherman
USGS Topo · Published 1956About this map
The St Louis San Francisco railroad cuts a diagonal path through this corner of Northeast Mississippi, connecting the larger hubs of New Albany and Tupelo through several smaller railway settlements. Communities like Wallerville, Blue Springs, and Sherman are situated along this critical transport corridor, which paralleled U.S. Route 78 during the mid-1950s. The landscape is defined by its transition from the higher elevations of Birmingham Ridge and Rakestraw Mountain down into the expansive lowlands of Coonewar Bottom and Wilson Bottom.
