About this map

Baldwyn serves as the primary municipal center in this Northeast Mississippi landscape, where the town’s grid meets a network of country roads and winding creek bottoms. To the southwest, the Brices Crossroads National Battlefield preserves the site of a significant Civil War engagement near the settlement of Bethany. The terrain is defined by low ridges including Tippah Hills, Kitchen Mountain, and Geeville Mountain, which separate the various tributaries of Twentymile Cr and Town Cr.

Genealogists will find a dense distribution of rural burial sites, such as Carrollville Cem, Sheppard Cem, and Asbury Cem, often located near crossroads or small communities like Geeville and Frankstown. The map also captures the local infrastructure of the early 21st century, from the Booneville/Baldwyn Airport in the northeast to the industrial corridors along W Industrial Park Dr, illustrating the region's mix of memorial preservation and modern development.
