1983 Map of Tie Plant

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

The industrial and rural landscape of north-central Mississippi converges at Tie Plant, a settlement named for the railroad infrastructure that defined the local economy during the early 1980s. The Illinois Central Gulf railroad serves as the primary corridor through the region, running parallel to the winding waters of Batupan Bogue. This map captures a borderland where three counties—Grenada, Carroll, and Montgomery—meet among the drainage basins of Collins Creek and Jumping Gulley Creek. Genealogists will find a high density of rural burial grounds and sanctuaries, such as Payne Chapel Cem and Hardiman Chapel, which anchor the smaller communities of Glenwild and Elliott. The southern portion of the map near Salem reveals a landscape transitioning into ridges like Riser, where family-named landmarks such as Purnell Cem and Wilkins Cem reflect generations of local settlement.
