2015 Map of Marcella

About this map

Tchula Lake and the serpentine course of Old Fannegusha Cr define the landscape of this Delta region, where the border of Holmes and Humphreys counties follows the natural erraticism of the waterways. The settlement of Marcella serves as a focal point near the southern edge of the map, adjacent to the Marcella Cem. This area is characterized by its agricultural heritage and distinct drainage patterns, with roads like Horseshoe Plantation Rd and Silent Shade Rd hinting at the historical land use and local geography. Further north, the oxbow formations of Horseshoe Lake and the isolated Palmatree Island illustrate the river's historical shifting paths. Small communities such as Choctaw, Butler, and Refuge are scattered throughout, connected by a network of rural roads that trace the rises and falls of the alluvial plain.
