About this map

The agricultural landscape of the Mississippi Delta is meticulously detailed in this survey, where the border of Washington and Sunflower counties divides a region defined by its bayous and small rural hamlets. The settlement pattern follows the drainage of Bogue Phalia and its various tributaries, including Sixmile Bayou and Deep Slough. Numerous family and community burial grounds, such as Evening Star Cem, Jones Cem, and Hopkins Cem, are scattered across the quadrangle, serving as vital landmarks for genealogical research in this part of Mississippi.
