2020 Map of Asa

About this map

The Little Tallahatchie River and its complex network of seasonal waterways define this portion of Panola County. The landscape is marked by the shifting path of the river, with the Old Little Tallahatchie River and Running Slough Ditch illustrating historical hydrological changes. The small settlement of Asa sits near the riverbanks, while the community of Chapeltown is located to the southeast, anchored by the Chapeltown Cem. Local family history is preserved through numerous named roads and landmarks, including McIvor Cem and the distinctive Nelsons Bluff. The map also captures several smaller drainages such as Rayburn Bayou, O'Brien Cr, and Hayne Cr, which drain the low-lying terrain. To the north, the label Viney Rough suggests a specific character to the local woods or topography, while Squirrel Bridge indicates an established crossing point for the rural road network.
