About this map

The Pearl River winds through Neshoba County in this 2012 survey, defining a landscape shaped by its slow-moving waters and seasonal floodplains. Near the center of the map, the settlement of Edinburg sits along the river's northern bank, where Yellow Bluff and Palmetto Flats provide distinctive terrain markers in an area characterized by numerous creeks and branches. The presence of Coughlin Mound near Underdown Lake suggests a long history of human occupation along these waterways, predating the modern rural roads and settlements.

Genealogists and local historians can find several established burial grounds scattered across the countryside, including Harmony Cem, Bethany Cem, and White Oak Cem. The map provides detailed placement for smaller communities like Remus in the north and Ebenezer in the south, connected by a network of county roads such as Hwy 427 and Co Rd 151. Water bodies such as Wye Lake and Barrett Lake are prominent features within this drainage basin, which is fed by numerous tributaries including Beasha Cr, Luneuah Cr, and Hooper Mill Cr.
