Title Plan of Memphis Description This map provides a view of the streets of Memphis during the Civil War. The public places and the city blocks are numbered and keyed to the Memphis City Directory. The inset shows the "Topographical Map of the Fourth Chickasaw Bluff on the River Mississippi," with Fort Pickering and President's Island. Historical Note The steamboat era helped Memphis grow until the Civil War, during which both sides sought control of the Mississippi River. After the war, the growth of railroads made Memphis a railroad hub, connecting West Tennesseans to other major cities like New Orleans and Charleston. Creator Goedecke, J.
