About this map

Mississippi River meanders define this boundary between Louisiana and Mississippi, where the Marshall Cut-Off (1934) and Millikens Bend illustrate the shifting hydrology of the Delta. The regional hub of Tallulah stands as a focal point for transportation, served by the Illinois Central railroad and a grid of rural routes connecting outlying farming communities. The landscape is dense with community landmarks that reflect the social fabric of the mid-1960s, including numerous local congregations such as Morning Star Ch, Jerusalem Ch, and Mt Moriah Ch No 1. Beyond the larger settlements like Mound and Thomastown, the map documents smaller sites like Solomon Temple and the Red Beard Landing Strip, alongside several cemeteries and schools such as Wright Sch that served the dispersed agricultural population across the alluvial plain.
