About this map

Pisgah and its local institutions, including the Pisgah High Sch and the Pisgah Cem, anchor the northwestern corner of this Rankin County landscape. The topography is defined by the drainage basins of Fannegusha Creek and Rollison Creek, which flank the elevated Rollison Prairie at the center of the sheet. This area reflects a traditional rural settlement pattern where life was organized around crossroads and community churches, such as Oak Grove Ch and Rehoboth Ch.

To the east, the settlement of Leesburg and the nearby Church of Christ sit near the border of Scott County. The southern reaches are characterized by a network of smaller waterways like Mink Branch and Clear Creek, where the community of Barefoot Springs and its namesake Barefoot Springs Ch are located. This document provides a detailed record of the road networks, such as Hollybush Road, that connected these remote Mississippi hamlets before significant modern development.
