About this map

The Pearl River meanders across this landscape on the boundary of Leake Co and Neshoba Co, defining the character of the riverine bottomlands. This survey documents the rural communities of Edinburg, Ebenezer, and Remus at a time when the local economy remained closely tied to the water and the woods. The topography is marked by distinctive features such as Yellow Bluff and the prehistoric Coughlin Mound, while the alluvial floor includes the broad Palmetto Flats.

Family history is preserved through a high density of country cemeteries, including Bethany Cem, Harmony Cem, and White Oak Cem, often located near crossroads or along the various creeks like Hooper Mill Cr and Beasha Creek. The network of county roads, such as Mars Hill Rd and Ebenezer Rd, links these scattered settlements, providing a clear view of the habitation patterns and local land divisions during the early 21st century.
