2024 Map of Kokomo

About this map

Magees Creek and its many tributaries, including Union Creek and Collins Creek, define the landscape of this region along the Marion and Walthall County line. Small communities and rural settlements like Kokomo, Salem, Knoxo, and Melis are connected by a network of backroads such as Darbun China Grove Road and Old Holmesville Road. The area is notably dense with spiritual and memorial sites, suggesting a long history of established family homesteads. Genealogists can trace local roots through numerous landmarks, including Salem Church, New Damascus Missionary Baptist Church, and several burial grounds like China Grove Cemetery and the Knoxo Cemetery. The terrain rises toward Dillon Hill in the southwest, while the eastern edge is marked by the winding path of Tenmile Creek.
