2020 Map of Black Hawk

About this map

The boundary between Carroll and Holmes counties divides this central Mississippi landscape, where small rural communities like Black Hawk and Acona are connected by a web of local roads and watercourses. The terrain is deeply carved by drainage systems including Abiaca Creek and Chicopa Creek, creating a complex network of ridges and bottoms. Historically significant family and community landmarks are scattered throughout the quadrangle, evidenced by a high density of burial sites such as Harmony Cem, Mount Pera Cem, and Hines Memorial Cem. The settlement pattern at Seven Pines and Adair reflects the enduring agricultural character of the region, where roads like Black Hawk Rd and Holly Grove Rd follow the natural topography to link disparate farmsteads and rural parish centers.
