About this map

Tombigbee River forms a critical geography here along the Clarke and Choctaw County boundary, anchoring a landscape defined by its creek networks and rural congregations. The settlement of Coffeeville serves as a local hub, featuring a High School and the Coffeeville Church near the riverbanks. Riverside activity is evidenced by Nichols Landing and Coffeeville Landing, points of transition between waterborne transport and the interior uplands.

Further east, the terrain rises toward Owl Hill and Dunagan Hill, where numerous small churches like Bethel Church and Friendship Church suggest a dispersed but established community. The presence of several Dry Wells and a Quarry indicate the area's mid-century extractive interests. This 1970s survey records the convergence of local life around water and faith, tracing the winding paths of Ulucanush Creek and Eberlein Mill Creek.
