2015 Map of Collins

About this map

Collins serves as the central hub of this 2015 survey, where industrial zones and local parks like Vennie Park meet the winding course of Okatoma Creek. The landscape transition from the town center to the outlying timber and farmland is marked by several long-standing settlements such as Mish, Salem, and Ora. For those researching local lineages, the map identifies several burial grounds including Ora Cem, Kola Cem, and Blakely Cem, often located near family-named roads like Sellers Rd or William Warren Rd. North of the town center, Legion Lake and Chain Lake provide distinctive water features among the creek systems. The road network, including Salem Church Rd and Jones Chapel Rd, hints at the historical placement of community meeting points that have anchored this part of Mississippi for generations.
