About this map

The Yockanookany River and its numerous tributaries, including Turkey Cr and Conehoma Cr, define the drainage patterns of this central Mississippi landscape. The small community of Ethel sits in the northwest corner, served by a network of rural roads such as Mill RD and Pope ST. Further south, the settlement of Providence acts as a local hub near several watercourses like Archie Cr and Kyle Cr.

Genealogists will find this area particularly significant for its concentration of family and community burial grounds. From Carson Ridge Cem and Harmony Cem in the north to Mount Moriah Cem and Ebenezer Cem in the south, these sites are scattered across the township and range divisions. The historic Natchez Trace Parkway and National Scenic Trail cuts through the extreme northwest, marking a modern preservation of the region's oldest transit corridor.
