1965 Map of Tatumville

About this map

The Dyer Co Gibson Co boundary line divides this agricultural landscape, where the North Fork Forked Deer River and Middle Fork Forked Deer River converge. The terrain is defined by broad floodplains like Macedonia Bottom and Tatumville Bottom, which support the small communities scattered across the upland ridges. Local life in the mid-1960s centered around rural hubs such as Tatumville, Lapata, and Neboville, many of which grew at the intersection of local routes like Tatumville Road and Currie Rd.
