1964 Map of Tibbs

About this map

The S Fk Forked Deer R snakes through the northern reaches of Haywood County, defining a landscape defined by its creek valleys and rural schoolhouses. In the mid-1960s, this area was anchored by small crossroads such as Tibbs and Christmasville, where social life centered on community landmarks like Antioch Ch and Hickory Grove Sch. The topography is etched by drainage patterns from Nixon Creek and Briar Creek, creating a network of ridges where long-established lanes like Tibbs Brownsville Road connected dispersed farmsteads.
