1974 Map of Sumner NE

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Cassidy Bayou dominates the landscape of this portion of Tallahatchie County, winding in dramatic oxbows and meanders across the Mississippi Delta. Captured via aerial photography in the mid-1970s, the terrain reveals an intricate pattern of agricultural land use that follows the ancient alluvial deposits of the river system. The neighboring towns of Sumner and Webb are situated along these natural waterways, their street grids and structures visible against the sweep of the surrounding fields. This orthophotograph provides a clear look at the relationship between the delta's hydraulic history and the development of these rural Mississippi settlements, showing how the tight bends of the bayou influenced the placement of roads and homesteads.
