The Big Sunflower River defines the western edge of this landscape, winding through a flat expanse of the Mississippi Delta where agricultural roads follow the rigid lines of the Public Land Survey System. The small settlements of Baltzer, Lombardy, and Fitzhugh serve as focal points for a rural network of named roads like Joe Stephen Rd and New Africa Rd. The map reveals the intricate drainage patterns of the region, including Black Bayou and Bear Bayou, which cut across the township lines between Coahoma and Sunflower counties.
