About this map

The Ludlow settlement serves as the focal point for this survey of the Mississippi interior at the turn of the millennium. Located where the boundaries of Scott, Leake, and Madison counties converge, the landscape is defined by the dense woodlands of the Bienville National Forest and the winding course of the Pearl River in the northwest. This rural community is anchored by local landmarks like the Po and Substations, alongside numerous country churches that have historically served the surrounding farmsteads.

Genealogists will find a wealth of family-named sites, including the Pearson Cem, Lee Cem, and Goward Cem. The intricate network of small waterways, such as Bogue Lee and Coffee Bogue, illustrates a landscape heavily influenced by its drainage patterns. From the Greenleaf Ch in the north to Midway in the southwest, the map provides a clear record of the area's social and geographic infrastructure just before more recent development.
