2021 Map of Busy Corner

About this map

Zion Hill and the surrounding Amite County landscape are defined by a network of small family cemeteries and rural congregations. The terrain is deeply carved by the W Fork Amite River and its many tributaries, including Zion Hill Cr and Knight Cr. The northern reaches of the sheet are dominated by the Homochitto National Forest, where the land transitions into managed timber and creek bottoms. Genealogical interest is particularly high here, as the map records numerous burial sites such as the Zion Hill Baptist Church Cem, Old Parson Hill Cem, and Nunnery Cem. These features, alongside small settlements like Ustane and Busy Corner, illustrate the dispersed settlement patterns of southwestern Mississippi. The infrastructure is primarily composed of local connectors like McGehee Rd SE and Rollinson Rd, which follow the contours of the drainage basins.
