About this map

The Pearl River and its associated floodplains define the western corridor of this Rankin County landscape, marking the transition between the state capital and the growing suburban reaches of Pearl and Flowood. This era represents a period of significant regional infrastructure, anchored by the sprawling Thompson Field and the expansive Ross R Barnett Reservoir Elevation 298 to the northeast. Transportation and industrial development are evident through the Illinois Central Gulf Railroad lines and numerous resource extraction sites like the Quarries near Greenfield. Local genealogy and community life are well-documented through small country landmarks such as Drakes Ch, Sweet Home Ch, and cemeteries including Whittington Cem and Flora Hills Cem. The map captures a mix of residential expansion in Crossgates and Castlewoods alongside established facilities like the Riverside Hospital and Womans Hospital.
