2020 Map of Lexington South

About this map

Lexington serves as the focal point of this Holmes County study, where the Holmes County Courthouse stands at the center of a grid defined by Yazoo St, Martin Luther King Dr, and Church St. To the south and west, the landscape transitions into the drainage basins of Moccasin Cr and Butterworth Cr, punctuated by small rural communities such as Brozville and Franklin. This area is particularly rich in family and community history, evidenced by a high density of small cemeteries including Liberty Hill Cem, West Grove Cem, and Odd Fellows Cem. The topography is shaped by the complex creek systems feeding into Cypress Cr, while aviation history is represented by the C A Moore Airport north of the city. Transportation patterns follow a network of county routes like Brozville Rd and Liberty Chapel Rd, connecting isolated farmsteads across the undulating terrain.
