2012 Map of Jonestown

About this map

The Coldwater River snakes through the heart of this Coahoma County landscape, defining a terrain shaped by the slow movements of Delta water. The town of Jonestown serves as the central hub, with its street grid including Mosley St and S Church St clearly delineated. To the north, the small settlement of Matagorda sits near the riverbanks, while Eagles Nest is positioned further south. For those tracing family histories in the region, the map identifies three significant burial sites: Alcorn Cem near the river bend, Coahoma Cem to the northwest, and Chrestman Cem in the southeast. Large water bodies like Swan Lake and Tula Lake persist as prominent landmarks, while a complex network of roads such as Friars Point Hwy 61 and Co Hwy-143 connects these agricultural and riverfront communities.
