2015 Map of Forkville

About this map

Morton serves as the southern anchor for this Scott County landscape, where the edges of the Bienville National Forest meet a patchwork of rural homesteads and agricultural clearings. The terrain is characterized by its open spaces, including Bald Prairie and Line Prairie, which stand out amongst the dense creek networks. Waterways like Coffee Bogue, Hurricane Cr, and Cherry Cr drain the rolling geography, often flanked by family-named roads such as Billy Davis Rd and McCurdy Rd. This survey highlights the distribution of small communities like Forkville and Branch, alongside several local burying grounds including Latham Cem and Morton Memorial Cem. The intersection of established forest land and private holdings provides a clear view of the regional land use patterns near the Rankin and Scott county line.
