ORIGINAL RECORDS OF NORTH TIPPAH CREEK SURVEYS
Notebooks of original valley section surveys, control levels and boring notes, were left in custody of Southern States Forest Experiment Station, U.S. Forest Service, New Orleans, Louisiana, in 1943-46, but efforts to recover them have been unsuccessful. Copies of the valley sections, and logs of soil borings, were made on microfilm for the Stream and Valley Sedimentation Research files of the Soil Conservation Service, and subsequently transferred to custody of Graham Renfro, Geologist, E and WP Unit, Soil Conservation Service, P.O. Box 11222, Fort Worth, Texas, 76100, U.S.A.
Notebook records of 1969 resurveys are in files of the U.S.D.A. Sedimentation Laboratory, Agricultural Research Service, P.O. Box 30, Oxford, Mississippi 38655, U.S.A.
Notebook records of "as built" channel sections after 1964 dredging, and some 1961 channel sections farther up the main stream and Medlock Branch, are in files of the Soil Conservation Service, Jackson, Mississippi. Those sections were not permanently marked nor tied to the valley sections, and can be found on the ground only by repeating the 1961 transit survey. They have not been resurveyed.
Photographs of valley section (range) markers, and representative channel views, taken by S.C. Happ, are in files of U.S.D.A. Sedimentation Laboratory, Oxford, Mississippi.
