About this map

The Little Tallahatchie River meanders across this landscape of the Mississippi Delta, defining the geography of the Asa area. To the south, the community of Chapeltown is anchored by the Chapeltown Cem, while the northern hills are home to the small settlement of Viney Rough. The hydrology of the region is notably complex, showing the Old Little Tallahatchie River channel alongside modern water management features like the Running Slough Ditch and the Rayburn Bayou.

Low-lying floodplains and bottoms, such as Vance Bottom, contrast with elevated landmarks like Nelsons Bluff. Local transit and land access are reflected in the dense network of rural routes, including Dummyline Rdd and the crossing at Squirrel Bridge. Genealogists may find value in the location of the McIvor Cem near the upper reaches of Armstead Cr, providing a record of local family heritage in Panola County.
