2012 Map of Buena Vista

About this map

Buena Vista and the surrounding prairies of Chickasaw County are documented here as they appeared in 2012, showing a rural landscape defined by historic burial grounds and an intricate drainage system. The settlement of Buena Vista serves as a focal point for researchers, flanked by the Buena Vista Cem and nearby Pulliam Cem. Further north, the landscape includes the community of Jolly and the distinctively named Egypt Prairie. The map's hydrography is notably dense, with the meandering Chuquatonchee Cr and its tributaries like Shaw Cr and Cane Cr carving through the agricultural terrain. Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of family and community cemeteries across the quadrangle, including the Confederate Cem and Citizens Cem in the northeastern corner, and the Mount Moriah Cem near the northern boundary.
