2018 Map of Buckatunna

About this map

Buckatunna and Chicora anchor this rural landscape in Wayne County, where the meandering path of the Chickasawhay River and its numerous tributaries define the local geography. The map reveals a settlement pattern tied to traditional transportation corridors, including the path of Old 45 Winchester Rd and the central hub at Robinsons Junction. For genealogists and local historians, the sheet is a significant resource for locating family burial grounds such as Winchester Cem, Mills Cem, and Mount Zion Cem, which are scattered throughout the wooded terrain. Numerous waterways like Beaver Cr and Patrick Cr crisscross the land, illustrating the dense network of creeks that supported the area's early development. At the southern edge, the small community of Battles sits near Mongus Cr, while to the north, the historic area of Winchester remains a focal point near the banks of Meadows Mill Cr.
