2018 Map of Ackerman

About this map

The town of Ackerman serves as a central hub for this portion of Choctaw County, situated where the Yockanookany River and Tibby Cr drain the surrounding terrain. This landscape is defined by the Noxubee Hills and the expansive Tombigbee National Forest, which covers the southeastern quadrant and includes the recreational waters of Choctaw Lake. The area's history is preserved in its numerous rural burying grounds, such as South Union Cem and Bethlehem Cem, which are scattered among small settlements like Fentress, Tollison, and Tuscan. Transportation and utility infrastructure are prominent, with the Ackerman Choctaw County Airport and a network of named country roads like Chester Mills Rd and Dido Rd connecting these remote communities. The map highlights the transition from the concentrated street grid of Ackerman to the forested ridges and creek bottoms of the national forest.
