This uncommon map spans from Memphis south to Jefferson County, Mississippi. The state is divided by survey township with the areas shaded in black signifying railroad lands owned by the Yazoo & Mississippi Valley R.R. Company that are available for sale. The Mississippi River is prominent with several towns, cities, and ports named along its course. A red line running next to the river delineates the levee system.
