2018 Map of Lobdell

About this map

Bogue Phalia and its winding tributaries dominate this Mississippi Delta landscape in Bolivar County. The alluvial plain is defined by an intricate network of waterways including Good Luck Bayou, Pistol Slough, and Stillwater Bayou, reflecting the region's complex natural drainage system. Near the settlement of Lobdell, the Polk-Royal Cem and Egypt Ridge Cem provide critical points of interest for genealogists tracing local families. The presence of the West Bolivar Flying Service on Egypt Ridge underscores the area's deep-rooted connection to large-scale agriculture and crop dusting. This modern survey maps the intersection of local roads like Rev Henry Cherry Rd and Longshot Rd against the low-lying wetlands and bayous that have shaped the economy and settlement patterns of the Delta for generations.
