About this map

Conn sits as a central settlement in this portion of the Pine Belt, where the landscape is defined by the winding paths of Bayou Pierre and its many tributaries. The area is dense with family and community burial grounds, such as Vaughn Cem, Howard Cem, and Greenlee Cem, which are scattered throughout the wooded drainage basins of Brushy Fork and Sterne Cr. These sites provide significant points of interest for those tracing the lineage of families settled along the Claiborne Co and Copiah Co boundary.

Transportation throughout this rural territory follows established routes like Old Port Gibson Rd and State Hwy 548. The map also illustrates the convergence of several small waterways, including Horsepen Cr and Chotau Cr, which feed the larger bayou system. This 2018 survey detail shows a region where the network of local roads like Bentville Rd and Shelby Rd connects isolated homesteads and small church communities.
