1972 Map of Terrys Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The Tickfaw River and its many tributaries, including Easley Branch and Friday Creek, define the landscape of this southern Mississippi territory in the early 1970s. Spanning the state line between Mississippi and Louisiana, the map reveals a rural economy shaped by natural resources and small community anchors. Industrial activity is visible in the Gillsburg Oil Field and scattered Gravel Pits, while local life centers on landmarks like the Terrys Creek Ch and several burial grounds, including Pilgrim Rest Cem and Roberts Cem. The presence of an Oil Well, a Fish Farm, and the Osyka Springs Campground indicates a multifaceted use of the land, ranging from extraction to recreation. A significant pipeline corridor cuts across the terrain, further illustrating the region's role in energy infrastructure during this era.
