2014 Map of Dancy

About this map

The Mississippi-Alabama state line bisects this landscape, dividing Noxubee Co and Pickens Co along a north-south axis defined by the winding course of the Tombigbee River. The river's historical importance to navigation is evidenced by the modern Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway and numerous named bars and shoals, including Clantons Bar and Colemans Shoals. Small rural communities and crossroads like Dancy and Dinsmore anchor the upland areas, connected by a network of local roads such as Jack Spann Rd and Nanny Clark Rd. Several historic burial grounds, including Hebron Church Cem and Cedar Grove Cem, provide vital landmarks for genealogical research. The drainage patterns are dominated by Bogue Chitto and its tributaries like Lower Cedar Cr, which feed into the main river system alongside distinct water bodies like Baldwins Lake and Johnstons Lake.
