About this map

The Pearl River winds through the heart of this East Central Mississippi landscape, defining the boundary between Leake and Neshoba counties. Near the river crossing, the settlement of Edinburg serves as a local hub, surrounded by a complex network of wetlands and tributaries such as Beasha Creek and Bose Nukse Creek. The terrain is marked by notable high points and flats, including Yellow Bluff and the broad Palmetto Flats to the south.

Genealogists and local historians can find several established burial grounds scattered across the countryside, including Mars Hill Cem, White Oak Cem, and Ebenezer Cem. Of particular archaeological interest is the Coughlin Mound, located in the river's northern floodplains. North of the main settlement, the community of Remus sits near the headwaters of Hooper Mill Cr, illustrating the dispersed rural settlement pattern of the region in the early 21st century.
