1981 Map of Tippo

About this map

The Tallahatchie River and its intricate network of associated bayous and lakes define this alluvial landscape in the early 1980s. This survey illustrates a rural environment where life centers on small communities like Tippo and Effie, and a high concentration of country churches serves the local population. Significant spiritual landmarks include Locopolis Ch, Cowart Ch, and Morning Star Ch, many of which sit near named water bodies such as Alligator Lake and Otter Lake. The map details the transition from traditional river-bound transport to more modern infrastructure, noting the Old Railroad Grade and Brown Landing Field. Large land holdings like Rabbit Ridge Plantation persist alongside educational and civic sites such as Strider Academy and a Community Center, reflecting the social fabric of the Mississippi Delta during this period.
