About this map

Ross R Barnett Reservoir dominates the northwestern landscape of this Rankin County region, its shoreline shaping the development patterns around Waterwood and the northern reaches of Flowood. The transition from the open waters and marshes of the reservoir to the inland prairies, including Hills Prairie and Barnes Prairie, reveals a landscape defined by small settlements and rural homesteads. The historic community of Fannin and the adjacent New Fannin serve as central points in a network of family-named landmarks and country burial grounds like Fannin Cem and McLaurin Cem.

Transportation and utility are represented by a mix of local infrastructure, including Woodbridge Airport and Mach 1 Jet Port Airport, situated amongst winding creeks such as Pelahatchie Creek and Mill Cr. The presence of numerous cemeteries, including Pilgrim Branch Cem and True Light Cem, provides significant points of interest for those tracing family history in this portion of central Mississippi.
