About this map

Bethsaida Baptist Church and several small community cemeteries anchor this rural landscape in eastern Neshoba County. The terrain is defined by a series of engineered watercourses, most notably the Cushtusia Canal and Coonshuck Canal, which cut through the lowlands to manage drainage. These canals parallel natural tributaries like Blinker Creek and Winstead Branch, reflecting a landscape heavily modified for agriculture and flood control.

Settlement patterns follow the high ground along routes such as Beatline, connecting dispersed hamlets like Tucker, Spring Hill, and Golden Grove. For genealogists, the map provides precise locations for family burial grounds including Bloomfield Cem and Center Hill Cem. The presence of roads like Sanitary Landfill Rd and various Bureau of Indian Affairs routes like BIA Rte 241 indicates a mix of modern infrastructure and tribal land management in this part of Mississippi.
