1954 Map of Vestry

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The De Soto National Forest dominates this mid-century landscape, preserving a network of creeks and small settlements across the intersections of Stone, Harrison, George, and Jackson Counties. The Tchoutacabouffa River and Red Creek serve as primary drainage for the area, which was defined at the time by forestry and small-scale resource extraction, as evidenced by several Sand Pit sites and a Clay Pit. Community life centered around scattered rural congregations and family burial grounds, including Bonnie Chapel, Latimer Ch, and the Ramsey Cem. Early industry and infrastructure are represented by Cooper Mill in the north and several fire observation points like the Latimer Lookout Tower. The settlement of Vestry sits in the northeast corner near Tootle Ch, while the remote Rifle Range in the southwest suggests specialized land use during this era.
