2024 Map of Lynn Creek

About this map

The Noxubee River meanders through this portion of Noxubee County, where dense wetlands and creek bottoms define the rural landscape. In the northern reaches, the Sam D Hamilton Noxubee National Wildlife Refuge preserves the natural bottomlands, while the small settlement of Lynn Creek serves as a local anchor point near the Lynn Creek Cem. The map reveals a deeply rooted community structure, evidenced by numerous family and church burial grounds such as White Cem, Carpenter Cem, and the Moore Cem. Along the river to the south, the name Buggs Ferry recalls an era of river crossings. Social and spiritual life is anchored by landmarks like Ruhama Baptist Church and Soule Chapel, each with its own associated cemetery. This survey provides a contemporary look at a landscape where traditional land divisions and remote creek systems like Shotbag Creek and Hushpucka Creek persist.
