2018 Map of Lexington North

About this map

The hills of Holmes County north of Lexington are defined by a complex network of creeks and numerous family-name cemeteries that reflect generations of local settlement. The drainage patterns of Fannequsha Cr and Bophumpa Cr carve through the landscape, alongside smaller tributaries like Moccasin Cr and Whites Cr. This rural area is characterized by a dense grid of local roads named for the destinations they once connected, such as Old Rockport Rd A, Lower Louisville Rd, and Providence Rd. Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of small burial grounds scattered across the terrain, including the Wanlaw Cem, Beall-Stigler Cem, and Jordan-Bailey Cem. Near the southern edge of the map, the C A Moore Airport stands as a modern landmark in an otherwise deeply traditional agricultural and cemetery-rich landscape.
