The low-lying Delta landscape of Bolivar and Coahoma counties is defined here by an intricate network of slow-moving water and agricultural roads. The town of Duncan and the village of Alligator serve as the primary hubs, situated near the western edge of the quadrangle. This area reflects the deep-rooted rural character of the Mississippi Delta, where the land is carved by the Hushpuckena River and the Big Sunflower River. The map reveals a high density of family and community burial grounds, such as Mount-Harmon Cem, Union Temple Cem, and Mount Evergreen Cem, which are essential markers for genealogical research in this region.
