About this map

Booneville serves as the central hub of this Prentiss County landscape, where the Northeast Mississippi Community Coll and significant civic spaces like Booneville Cem and Oaklawn Memorial Park anchor the local community. The terrain is defined by a complex drainage system, notably the Tuscumbia River and several creeks such as Pollys Cr and Hornolucka Cr, which create a rolling topography before giving way to the Piney Grove Hollow in the northeast.

Smaller settlements and crossroads like Gaston, Thrasher, and Bynum are dispersed throughout the countryside, connected by an extensive network of county roads. Genealogists will find a high density of burial sites including Lakeview Cem, Cairns Chapel Cem, and Friendship Cem near Lake City. The presence of Booneville Lake and Hurricane Cr south of the city center highlights the importance of water management and recreation in this North Mississippi region.
