2020 Map of Cary

About this map

Deer Creek meanders through the alluvial landscape of the Mississippi Delta, anchoring the small settlements of Cary and Issaquena in this modern survey of the region. The map reveals the intricate network of watercourses and bayous that define the local topography, including Steele Bayou and Coon Bayou. The layout of the town of Cary is clearly delineated with local streets such as Magnolia Dr and Willow Ln, while the rural surroundings are marked by land divisions and irrigation patterns common to Sharkey and Issaquena counties. Genealogists and local historians can locate the Danover Cem east of Egremont, as well as significant landmarks like Poindexter Island. The presence of Oil Well Rd points toward the industrial activity and resource extraction that continues to shape the economic character of the Delta's flatlands.
