About this map

Gallman and the northern reaches of Hazlehurst anchor this modern survey of Copiah County, illustrating the contemporary transportation and settlement patterns of central Mississippi. The terrain is deeply etched by a network of waterways including Turkey Creek, Clear Creek, and Copiah Creek, which shaped the early development of the region. The map preserves the locations of numerous historic burial grounds, such as Pisgah Cem and the Wiltshire King Cem, which serve as vital touchstones for family historians tracing local lineages.

The small settlement of Tillman and various rural landmarks like the Greater Damascus Church of Christ Cem are documented alongside a complex grid of local roads, such as Old Natchez Rd and Byrdtown Rd. These routes follow the natural topography, connecting scattered homesites and agricultural tracts to the larger town centers. The inclusion of township and range boundaries, such as t1n r2w, provides the essential cadastral framework for researchers looking to pinpoint specific land parcels in this section of the state.
