About this map

Burnsville stands as the central hub of this Mississippi landscape, where the local street grid including Front St and Carpenter Ave meets the rail corridor. The area is defined by a dense network of family and community burial grounds, such as Opossum Trot Cem, Little Flock Cem, and Rowland Mills Cem, which offer significant value for genealogical research in Tishomingo County.

To the west, the settlement of Leedy is positioned near the winding course of Berea Cr, while the eastern portion of the map is dominated by the elevations of Tucker Ridge and Chestnut Ridge. The drainage patterns are intricate, with Yellow Creek and its many tributaries like Little Yellow Cr and Hazard Br cutting through the terrain. Evidence of the region's rail-dependent history is visible at Walker Siding, providing a clear look at the transportation infrastructure that supported these rural communities.
