1988 Map of Benton
USGS Topo · Published 1988About this map
Benton sits at the eastern edge of this landscape in Yazoo County, serving as a hub where local roads converge amidst a complex network of waterways. The terrain is defined by the winding paths of Walesheba Creek and Little Walesheba Creek, which drain the central and southern portions of the quadrangle. Northward, the small settlement of Woodlawn and the drainage of Piney Creek illustrate the rural character of the region during the late 1980s. Local industry and recreation are represented by a Gravel Pit and a Golf Course, while the inclusion of a Road Side Park suggests a transition toward modern traveler infrastructure. Small family or community Cem sites are scattered throughout, providing critical touchpoints for genealogists tracing the residents of Mills Crossing and surrounding rural homesteads.
