About this map

Rural Hill and the surrounding Winston County terrain are defined by a network of rural cemeteries and the headwaters of numerous creeks in this 2012 study. The landscape is dotted with ancestral sites like Edgefield Cem, Doty Springs Cem, and Macedonia Cem, offering a detailed view for genealogists tracing family roots in the region. The map captures the settlement of East Macedonia and the small community of Hinze near the winding course of Lobutcha Cr.

A notable landmark is the McCool Lookout Tower situated near Co Line Rd, marking a high point in the local topography. The area is heavily intersected by small watercourses including McQuirter Cr, Sand Cr, and Dry Cr, which shaped the early road patterns and farm boundaries that remain visible today. These features illustrate the enduring rural character of central Mississippi before modern development further altered the landscape.
