2018 Map of Madden

About this map

Laurel Hill and Madden anchor this rural landscape along the border of Leake and Neshoba counties. The area is defined by a dense network of creek systems including Standing Pine Cr and Luneluah Cr, which carve through the undulating terrain. Small, dispersed settlements like Waldo, Dowdville, and High Hill reflect a long-standing pattern of agricultural and timber-based community life in east-central Mississippi. Genealogy researchers will find significant value in the mapped locations of local burial grounds, such as Laurel Hill Cem, Carolina Cem, and Mount Zion Cem. The road system, featuring named routes like Witheree Rd and Turtle Neck Rd, illustrates the connectivity between these isolated rural outposts and family homesteads.
