2024 Map of Lula

About this map

Lula serves as a central point in this Delta landscape, where the confluence of agriculture and water has long defined Coahoma County. The town is flanked by the broad expanse of Moon Lake and the complex drainage systems of Brady Bayou and Muddy Bayou. Notable for genealogists are several rural burial grounds including Bethlehem Cem, Barbee Cem, and Hull Cem, which anchor the histories of local families in the surrounding fields. The historical significance of the Yazoo Pass is evident here, marking a traditional waterway through the alluvial plain toward the Coldwater River. Scattered settlements like Rich, Roseacres, and Birdie are linked by a network of rural roads such as Lula Rich Rd and Birdie Rd, reflecting a land use pattern established by generations of cotton farming and river navigation near the Tunica and Quitman county lines.
