2018 Map of Gin Branch

About this map

The Middle Fork Homochitto River and its myriad tributaries define the landscape of this Jefferson County quadrangle. A dense network of creeks and branches, including Gin Branch, N Fork Coles Cr, and Terry Cr, carve through the terrain, illustrating the intricate drainage patterns of southwest Mississippi. The road network connects small clearings and homesteads via routes such as Dennis Cross Rd and Old Hwy 20. The presence of the Dillon Cem near Ephesus Church Rd provides a specific point of interest for genealogists tracing local family histories in this rural area. The map captures a primarily undeveloped landscape where modern life is still etched into the land along traditional watercourses like Blue Goose Cr and Gilchrist Cr.
