2014 Map of Luxora

About this map

The town of Luxora anchors this Mississippi River delta landscape, situated just north of the winding channel that defines the border between Arkansas and Tennessee. This 2014 survey documents a region defined by extensive drainage networks like Mill Bayou and Catalpa Bayou, essential for the agricultural economy of Mississippi County. Small, established settlements such as Burdette, Lemsford, and New Salem are scattered across the alluvial plain, connected by a grid of rural routes including E Ar-148 and US Highway 61. Genealogists will find several burial sites preserved here, including New Salem Cem, Citizen Cem, and Sandy Ridge Cem. The map captures the industrial and natural intersection of the riverfront, featuring landmarks like Fletcher Towhead and the Levee Road, alongside the shifting shoreline at Rosa Pocket.
