1964 Map of Strengthford

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

De Soto National Forest dominates this section of the Mississippi piney woods, where the landscape is defined by the complex drainage systems of the Tiger Creek and Thompson Creek watersheds. During the mid-1960s, the small settlement of Strengthford served as a local hub near the boundary between Jones and Wayne Counties. The map reveals a rural community structure tied to the land, with Tiger Creek Ch and Salem Ch anchoring local social life. The presence of the Wausau Lookout Tower in the southeastern quadrant underscores the importance of timber management and fire surveillance within the national forest. Industrial activity is sparsely represented by a Gravel Pit in the northeast, while the intricate network of secondary watercourses like Little Tiger Creek and West Little Thompson Creek illustrates the dissected nature of the local topography before modern development altered these rural drainage patterns.
