2024 Map of Guntown

About this map

Guntown and Saltillo anchor this north Mississippi landscape, where the headwaters of numerous creeks carve through the terrain of Pea Ridge. The map reveals a dense network of family and community burial grounds, such as Alice Memorial Cem, Gaston Cem, and the Francis Family Cem, which speak to the deep genealogical roots of Lee County. Water is a defining element of the local geography, from the winding course of Euclautubba Creek to the recreational expanse of Lake Lamar Bruce in the south and Five County Sportsman Lake to the east. The northern edge of the survey captures the southern reaches of Baldwyn, showing how these established settlements are connected by a web of county roads and the modern corridor that parallels the historic path of the Natchez Trace. Smaller locales like Blair and landmarks like Singleton Hall Cem further illustrate the distribution of rural community life across this segment of the state.
