1967 Map of Stringtown

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Grapeland and Stringtown anchor this landscape along the Indian Treaty Boundary, where the Delta's agricultural patterns are etched by a dense network of winding bayous and drainage channels. The 1967 topography reveals a deeply rural community defined by its spiritual and social anchors, including Strangers Rest Ch, Zion Field Ch, and the Rock of Ages Ch Cem. The intricate hydrology of the region is evident in the meanders of Steele Bayou, Stillwater Bayou, and Snake Bayou, which segment the leveled fields and landing strips. This survey documents the area just before significant modern consolidation, preserving the locations of numerous small churches like Kindling Altar Ch and family-named landmarks like Dickerson Cem that serve as vital touchstones for Delta genealogy and local history.
