2015 Map of Beatrice

About this map

DeSoto National Forest covers the majority of this landscape, where the borders of Stone, Harrison, George, and Jackson counties converge. The area is defined by a dense network of watercourses including Tuxachanie Cr and Little Red Creek, which carve through the piney woods. Human activity is centered on small settlements like Beatrice and Dantzler, with long-established family sites represented by Broadus Cem and Walker Cem. Transportation follows historical corridors such as Wire Road E and Cable Bridge Rd, indicating a terrain where creek crossings and logging routes dictated the local geography. The map reveals the intricate drainage patterns of the coastal plain, shown through features like Hurricane Bay Br and Butt Head Br.
