About this map

Double Springs anchors this rural landscape along the boundary of Choctaw Co and Oktibbeha Co in north-central Mississippi. The terrain is defined by a dense network of tributaries including Trim Cane Cr and Blythe Creek, which wind through a mosaic of woodlots and small clearings. Settlement patterns here are tied closely to these watercourses and a web of named secondary roads such as Reform Rd and Sturgis Maben Rd.

Genealogists will find a high concentration of burial sites marking early family and community hubs, including the Big Creek Methodist Cem and the Double Springs Cem. The distribution of these sites, alongside others like Mount Olive Cem and Pleasant Ridge Cem, suggests a dispersed agricultural population supported by local congregations. The preservation of these landmarks provides a clear look at the historical footprint of these rural communities as they appeared in the early 21st century.
