About this map

The Noxubee River and its intricate network of wetlands define this landscape where Oktibbeha, Winston, and Noxubee counties meet. Central to this topography is Bluff Lake, featuring distinct geographic branches like Dickerson Arm and Doyle Arm. This area is characterized by a carefully managed water system, evident in the series of numbered impoundments such as Green Timber Reservoir Number Three and Green Timber Reservoir Number Four.

Genealogists and local historians will find several burial sites preserved here, including Bethel Cem, Cedar Grove Cem, and Noxubee Cem. The settlement of Oktoc sits on the eastern edge of the quadrangle, connected to the surrounding countryside by a web of local routes like Robinson Rd and Oktoc Rd. Unique landmarks like the Wilderness Trail and the Ross Br Reservoir suggest a landscape used for both conservation and community life.
