2010 Map of Byhalia NW

About this map

The Coldwater River meanders across this landscape, defining the topography of a region steeped in local history and family heritage along the Mississippi-Tennessee border. Numerous burial grounds are scattered throughout the quadrangle, including the Center Hill Cemetery, Halliburton Cemetery, and McGehee Cemetery, each marking the locations of early area congregations and family plots. The southern reaches of the map show the drainage patterns of Sticky Creek and Byhalia Creek, while the road network reflects modern growth extending from the state line. For genealogists, the density of small cemeteries like the Saint Mathis Cemetery and Eason Cemetery offers a valuable record of the area's rural development and the established families who shaped this borderland community in the early 21st century.
