About this map

Doskie and Pine Flat anchor this landscape along the border of Mississippi and Tennessee, characterized by a complex network of creeks and small family cemeteries. The terrain is defined by low ridges and hollows, such as Yankee Charlie Ridge and Gray Hollow, which shaped the early settlement patterns of Tishomingo County. The map reveals the deep-rooted local history through numerous burial grounds, including the Lambs Chapel Cem and Blackard Cem.

Infrastructure is tied closely to the water, with Yellow Creek and its many tributaries like Coke Creek and Caney Creek dictating the placement of crossings such as Sharp Bridge and Moser Bridge. These bridges and rural corridors like State Line RD show how the community maintained connections across state boundaries. The presence of smaller settlements like Cross Roads and the Sandy Creek Subdivision illustrates the gradual transition from traditional rural homesteads to modern residential pockets.
