2024 Map of House

About this map

DeWeese and House anchor this rural landscape in East Central Mississippi, situated along the border of Neshoba Co and Kemper Co. The terrain is defined by a dense network of waterways, including Cushtusia Creek, Okatibbee Creek, and Houston Creek, which carve through the wooded hills. For family historians, the sheet is exceptionally detailed in its documentation of community burial sites and places of worship. Numerous cemeteries like Mars Hill Cemetery, Hesters Chapel Cemetery, and the Liberty United Methodist Cemetery are scattered throughout the quadrangle, reflecting generations of settlement in these townships. The presence of McLain - Calico Airport and House Lake adds modern context to a region that otherwise maintains a quiet, agrarian character, with a complex system of county roads such as Co RD 460 and Co RD 733 connecting isolated homesteads and small family plots.
