About this map

Leroy Percy State Park and the Yazoo National Wildlife Refuge anchor this mid-century survey of the Mississippi Delta. The landscape is defined by the intricate meanders of Black Bayou, Granicus Bayou, and Puzzle Bayou, which carve through a region dominated by agricultural flumes and scattered rural settlements. Cultural landmarks like the Indian Mounds near the Illinois Central railroad line provide a link to the deep history of Washington County, while the presence of Macedonia Cem, Mt Tabor Ch, and Strangers Home Ch reflects the established community networks of the 1960s. The map illustrates a transitional period for the Delta, where traditional rail-and-river transport exists alongside a modern Landing Strip, and water management features like Gamble Lake and Brushy Lake illustrate the ongoing engineering of the local wetlands.
