About this map

Golden Triangle Regional Airport serves as a modern focal point for this rural Lowndes County landscape, which was revised in 1987. Surrounding the airfield, the area is defined by a dense network of family-named roads and community landmarks like the Mississippi Sheriffs Boys Ranch and the Lowndes Co Voc-Tech Sch. The settlement of Bent Oak is situated central to a transition from industrial development to traditional agricultural land, where numerous rural churches such as New Zion Ch and Springfield Ch anchor local history. Waterways like Motley Slough and Gilmer Creek meander through the terrain, flanked by numerous small cemeteries and chapels, including Shaeffer Chapel and Prairie Hill Cem, offering researchers a detailed record of the region’s mid-century rural development and social infrastructure.
