1969 Map of Winchester
USGS Topo · Published 1987About this map
Missouri Pacific rails run parallel to the western boundary of this landscape, connecting the settlements of Pickens, Yukon, and Winchester. The area is defined by the winding course of Amos Bayou and several Fish Farm operations that reflect the local agricultural economy of the late 1960s. For genealogists, the map is a dense record of community institutions, featuring numerous small cemeteries such as Jefferson Cem, Newton Cem, and Dixon Cem, often located adjacent to rural houses of worship like Newton Chapel and Hopedale Ch. The topography remains relatively flat, transitioning into wet lowlands such as Live Oak Brake and Coon Bayou in the south. Other notable landmarks include the Pickens Airport and several localized drainage canals that support the surrounding farm and well sites.
