2018 Map of Lambert

About this map

Lambert and Marks serve as the primary population centers in this section of Quitman County, where the Mississippi Delta landscape is defined by its intricate drainage networks. Buzzard Bayou and Buck Bayou meander through a patchwork of agricultural fields and wetlands, punctuated by water bodies such as Buford Lake and Buckskin Lake. The arrangement of rural roads like Sabino Rd and Killebrew Rd follows the square-mile grid of the Public Land Survey System, illustrating how land division shaped the development of these Delta communities. For those researching local history or genealogy, the map identifies specific burial sites including Lambert Cem and Denton Cem near the small settlement of Denton. The presence of Selfs Airport and a series of drainage canals highlight the modern infrastructure required to manage this low-lying, water-rich terrain.
