2020 Map of Gore Springs

About this map

Grenada Lake dominates the central landscape of this rural Mississippi survey, where the Yalobusha River flows through a complex of wetlands and tributaries. The settlement of Gore Springs anchors the southern portion of the map near the Gore Springs Cem, while the small community of Youngs is situated to the north. The terrain is marked by numerous family-named roads and country cemeteries, including Mount Nebo Cem, Shiloh Cem, and Jones Cem, which provide significant points of interest for genealogical research. The hydrology of the region is well-defined by creeks such as Butputter Creek, Cowpen Creek, and Yeager Cr. This modern topographic study reveals a landscape defined by its proximity to the lake and a network of county roads like Graysport Crossing Rd that connect these remote inland communities.
