1963 Map of Smyrna

About this map

Smyrna and its surrounding countryside in Copiah County are defined by a network of rural churches and small-scale gravel operations. In the early 1960s, this landscape was anchored by congregational centers such as Mt Olive Ch, New Zion Ch, and Antioch Ch, which were often positioned alongside family cemeteries. The terrain is deeply carved by watercourses like Halls Creek and Valley Creek, creating a series of wooded ridges and valleys that dictate the winding paths of the local roads.
