About this map

Iuka serves as the focal point of this Tishomingo County landscape, centered on the Tishomingo County Courthouse and a dense network of local roads. The town's geographic character is defined by the proximity of Woodall Mtn, the highest point in Mississippi, which stands southwest of the town center. The settlement pattern extends along the primary corridors toward Blythe Crossing and Oldham, with numerous family and community cemeteries such as Cypress Grove Cem and Mount Evergreen Cem dotting the countryside.

Drainage systems like Indian Cr and Clear Cr carve through a terrain marked by distinct landforms, including Steam Mill Hollow and Ashcraft Mtn. These natural features, alongside the Iuka Airport, reflect the intersection of the region's topographical prominence and its modern transit infrastructure. The map also records several country churches, including the Harmony Methodist Church Cem and First Freewill Baptist Church Cem, highlighting the area's long-standing community centers.
