2012 Map of Looxahoma

About this map

The community of Looxahoma and the surrounding Tate County countryside are defined by a network of rural roads and numerous small family or community burial grounds. This 2012 survey illustrates the agricultural character of the region, where the natural drainage of Basket Cr and Senatobia Cr has been modified by the James Wolf Canal. For genealogists and local historians, the map is an exceptional resource for locating specific cemeteries, including Lewers Chapel Cem, Saint Maria Cem, and Fredonia Cem, which are scattered throughout the landscape. Notable landmarks such as the Glenville Lookout Tower near the intersection of Dandridge Rd and Mitchell Rd provide fixed points of reference in an area otherwise characterized by its creeks and small settlements like Crossroad and Barr.
