About this map

Bienville National Forest dominates the southern landscape of this Scott County region, where the Leaf River and its numerous tributaries like Little Tallahala Cr and W Tallahala Cr carve through the wooded terrain. The settlement of Lake serves as a central hub, flanked by smaller communities and family-named locales such as Dennis Settlement and Buckleytown.

For those tracing local history, the presence of Dennis Cem near the northern boundary and Eureka Cem to the southeast offers specific points of interest for genealogical research. The map illustrates a transition from the structured street grid of Lake, featuring School St and Front St, to the more dispersed residential patterns found near Tanglewood and Bartlett. Prominent elevations like Diamond Hill and Bald Hill provide landmarks within a landscape otherwise defined by its intricate drainage networks and timbered reaches.
