About this map

Macon serves as the focal point of this Noxubee County landscape, where the Noxubee County Courthouse stands as a central landmark amid a grid of streets including Main St and Jefferson St. The geography is defined by the winding course of the Noxubee River, which is fed by numerous tributaries such as Horse Hunters Cr, Dry Cr, and Macedonia Cr. This water network creates a complex pattern of wetlands and low-lying areas, visible near Howard Lake and along the river's southern reach.

For those tracing local history, several burial grounds are scattered throughout the quadrangle, including the Odd Fellows Cem just east of the town center, Salem Cem, and the remote DeJarnate Cem to the southeast. The rural surroundings are connected by a network of local routes like Patterson Rd and Allen Bend Rd, illustrating the intersection of established river-bottom terrain and the structured development of the Noxubee County seat.
