About this map

Meridian Naval Air Station / Mc Cain Field dominates the central landscape of this East Mississippi survey, positioned just south of the Kemper and Lauderdale county line. This military installation is flanked by several small water bodies including Martha Lake, Caroline Lake, and McElroys Lake, which appear as distinct basins within the surrounding wooded and agricultural terrain. To the southeast, the community of Lauderdale serves as a local hub near the winding course of Little Reed Creek.

Family history is preserved through a network of rural burial grounds, such as Segars Cem and Gordon Cem, scattered along local routes like Kemper Springs Rd and Old Lauderdale Lizelia Rd. The drainage patterns of Ponta Creek and Big Reed Creek provide the primary geographical structure for the region, illustrating the transition between the rolling uplands of Kemper County and the settled valleys of Lauderdale County.
