2012 Map of Braxton

About this map

Braxton sits as a central hub in this part of Mississippi, surrounded by a dense network of family-named cemeteries and rural settlements. The area is defined by the headwaters and tributaries of several creeks, including Thompson Cr, Dabbs Cr, and Sanders Cr, which carve through the landscape. Educational and religious landmarks are prominent, notably the Piney Woods school and the nearby Piney Woods Cem. The map reveals a community deeply rooted in its local history, with numerous small burial grounds such as Old Taylor Hill Cem, Zion Hill Cem, and Saint Johns Cem scattered across the countryside. To the east, the Cato Lookout Tower stands near the settlement of Cato, overlooking a terrain structured by old farm roads like Bill Hubbard Rd and Rupert Martin Rd.
