The Big Black River meanders sharply through the heart of this landscape, forming a natural boundary between Yazoo, Madison, and Hinds Counties. This 1980s topography documents the persistent rural character of the region, where numerous small congregations and family burial grounds are tucked into the drainages of Kirk Creek and Bogue Chitto Creek. The riverine geography is central to the area's history, marked by the presence of Coxs Ferry and the small community of Nevada near the Hinds County line.
