About this map

The town of Crawford anchors the eastern edge of this landscape where Lowndes, Oktibbeha, and Noxubee counties meet. This modern survey reveals a rural territory defined by deep-rooted family landmarks and congregational history, notably the Brown Ridge Missionary Baptist Church Cem near Penns and the Pleasant Grove Missionary Baptist Church Cem further west. The topography is etched by numerous drainage systems, including Browning Cr and Shotbag Cr, which weave between small family burial plots like Sanders Cem and Crigler Cem.

Southward, the terrain transitions into the wetlands surrounding Oktoc Creek and the Green Timber Reservoir Number Two. Notable infrastructure like Edmonds Bridge over the creek and the intersection of Moor High Rd and Belk Rd provide reference points for those tracing the development of this agricultural region. The map preserves a detailed record of local roads named for prominent residents, such as Stallings Rd and Sam Hill Rd, reflecting the generational presence of families in this corner of Mississippi.
