2018 Map of Collirene

About this map

Old Town and Collirene anchor this portion of the Black Belt region, where the landscape is defined by the winding paths of Old Town Cr and Mush Cr. The topography reveals a network of small creeks and branches, such as Church Br and Sullivan Cr, that drain the undulating terrain toward larger basins. A notable concentration of family and community burial sites, including Dunklin Cem, Rives Cem, and Shiloh Cem, suggests a long history of local settlement and genealogical significance. Centrally located, Mt Baber rises as a distinct landmark near the junction of Sam Wright Ln and Lyon Rd. The map detail shows how historic rural routes like Old Town Rd and the Collirene Cutoff Rd continue to connect these scattered agrarian communities. In the southern reach, J R Paul Lake and the headwaters of Green Br illustrate the area's ongoing reliance on local water sources for land management.
