2015 Map of Heidelberg

About this map

Heidelberg anchors this portion of Jasper County, where the town grid is clearly defined by streets like Beech St, Walnut St, and Magnolia Ave. The landscape follows the drainage of Bogue Homo and Shubuta Creek, revealing a series of small communities and rural family landmarks. Moving north and east, the map traces the locations of Vossburg, Stafford Springs, and Barnett along the transport corridors between Jasper and Clarke counties. Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of local burial grounds, including Salem Cem, Saint Peter Cem, and Shady Grove Cem. The area's water resources are punctuated by several named bodies of water such as Lake Utopia, Lake Waukaway, and Lake Bounds, illustrating the local hydrology that historically influenced settlement patterns in this part of Mississippi.
