About this map

The Big Black River forms the western boundary of this Madison County landscape, where the terrain shifts from river lowlands to a network of creeks and bayous. Small communities such as Loring, Truitt, and Sharpsburg are scattered across the interior, linked by a web of rural roads like Stump Bridge Rd and Old Highway 51 Rd. This region is particularly dense with sites of interest for genealogists, including numerous family and church burial grounds. Williamson Family Cem and Martin Family Cem point to long-standing local ties, while larger communal sites like Saint Peters Church Cem and Rocky Hill Methodist Church Cem anchor the area's rural social history. Waterways like Bisland Bayou and Hobuck Cr define the drainage patterns that shaped early settlement and farm placement in this part of Mississippi.
