1967 Map of Vance

About this map

The winding course of Cassidy Bayou defines this Mississippi Delta landscape, where Quitman and Tallahatchie counties meet. In the mid-1960s, this region remained heavily focused on agriculture and rural community life, anchored by small settlements like Vance and Brazil. The map provides a detailed record of local genealogy and infrastructure, noting numerous country churches such as Morning Star Ch, New Salem Ch, and Macedonia Ch. To the north, an Indian Mound stands near Longstreet, while the eastern portion of the sheet is dominated by the State Penal Farm Camp B. The drainage patterns are intricate, featuring the oxbows of Suffer Brake and the Lower Quiver River. The Illinois Central railroad cuts a straight line through the alluvial plain, connecting these isolated Delta towns and serving as the primary corridor for commerce and transport.
