2021 Map of Looxahoma

About this map

Looxahoma and the surrounding rural landscape of northern Mississippi are defined by a complex network of creeks and small family-named roads. This modern survey illustrates the persistent agricultural and residential patterns of the region, where community life centers on historic sites like Looxahoma Cem and Saint Maria Cem. The terrain is characterized by the winding courses of Senatobia Creek and Bates Creek, alongside the engineered path of the James Wolf Canal. These waterways dictate the placement of local thoroughfares such as Lyles Road and Crockett Road. Genealogical interest is particularly high here, with numerous burial sites including Beulah Cemetery and Ebenezer Cemetery scattered across the Tate and Panola County line, providing a clear record of the area's ancestral settlements and church-centered neighborhoods.
