About this map

The Tombigbee River serves as the defining boundary between Clarke and Washington Counties, anchored by the city of Jackson in the southeast. This 2014 survey captures the region's complex geography of creek systems, such as Salt Cr and Stave Cr, which drain the timbered uplands toward the river. Cultural history is etched into the landscape through scattered settlements like Toddtown, McVay, and Leroy, alongside numerous family and community burial sites including Stave Creek Cem and Parker Bell Cem.

Modern infrastructure is most prominent at the Joe C McCorquodale Junior Bridge, a critical river crossing near the Saint Elmo Bar. Local legacy is preserved in road names like Salt Works Rd, hinting at the historical extraction activities that once defined the local economy. The map provides a detailed view of the street grids in Jackson and the rural road network connecting communities like Mays Crossroads.
