About this map

Big Black River meanders across this landscape, forming a natural boundary between Yazoo and Madison counties. The river valley is characterized by complex hydrology including oxbows and swampy terrain, evidenced by Mud Lake, Deadman Lake, and the winding Hendricks Lake Run. On the bluffs above the river, the settlement of Beatties Bluff stands as a prominent landmark. The surrounding uplands are marked by a high density of rural burial sites, such as the Stokes Family Cem, Hanging Moss Cem, and Mount Zion Cem, which provide significant value for genealogical research in this part of Mississippi. Small communities like Virlilia and Scotland Fork are connected by a network of local routes such as Virlilia Rd and Scotland Rd, reflecting a dispersed agricultural settlement pattern near the river bottoms.
