1952 Map of Water Valley

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

The Illinois Central railroad cuts a diagonal path through this 1952 landscape, anchoring the settlement at Water Valley and connecting it to the growing industrial centers of Fulton and South Fulton to the southwest. This borderland region between Kentucky and Tennessee is defined by the winding course of the Bayou du Chien, which drains the rolling hills into the lowlands. The presence of numerous small rural hubs like Feliciana and Roper, alongside localized churches such as Pleasant Valley Ch and Boaz Chapel, reflects a mid-century community still deeply rooted in its agricultural and small-town foundations.
