About this map

Gholson lies at the intersection of local roads where Noxubee Co and Kemper Co meet, serving as a focal point for a landscape defined by ridges and creek bottoms. The terrain rises to distinct heights at Gholson Mtn, Poorhouse Mtn, and White House Mtn, while the drainage network includes Nails Cr and Sand Cr. This 2015 edition provides a clear picture of the rural infrastructure in East Mississippi, detailing the many cemetery locations that serve local families.

Small settlements like Clearman and Fairhill are situated among the headwaters of Mud Cr and Wahalack Cr. The area is notably rich in family and community landmarks, including the Cotton Cem, Calhoun Cem, and the Pine Turkey Cem. Notable geographic features such as Potters Ridge and the Marsh Hollow further define the local topography, offering a detailed perspective for those studying the genealogy and land use patterns of this border region.
