2020 Map of Hale

About this map

Bogue Homo and Shubuta Creek define the hydrologic character of this Mississippi landscape, weaving through a terrain marked by small community clusters and ancestral burial grounds. The historical transit of the region is anchored by the Old Stagecoach Rd in the north, while modern county roads connect the dispersed settlements of Harmony, Hale, Nancy, and Goodwater. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of local cemeteries, including Harmony Cem, Goodwater Cem, and McGowan Chapel Cem, which often represent the spiritual and social centers of these rural neighborhoods. The area's geography is further characterized by numerous minor waterways like Luke Fluffer Cr and Hollicar Cr, which contribute to the drainage of the varied Clarke County topography. Landmarks such as Wilson Bridge provide specific points of interest for those tracing family property or regional travel history.
