About this map

Okolona and the surrounding prairie and woodland of Chickasaw County are detailed in this survey, which highlights the intersection of agricultural land and the Tombigbee National Forest. The landscape is defined by a dense network of watercourses, most notably the meandering path of Chuquatonchee Cr and its tributaries like Cane Cr and Dicks Cr. In the northern reach, the map identifies the Confederate Cem and Citizens Cem, providing specific points of interest for genealogists and local historians tracking family sites near the township boundaries.

Further south, the small settlement of Buena Vista serves as a local hub near Buena Vista Cem and Pulliam Cem. The map's grid of county roads, such as Co Road 149 and Co Road 406, illustrates the rural infrastructure connecting disparate homesites and rural communities like Jolly. The varied terrain transitions from the creek bottoms of Red Bud Cr to the more upland forested areas, offering a clear view of the region's geographic character.
