About this map

Big Cypress Bayou and Little Cypress Bayou define the hydrology of this rural landscape along the Marion and Harrison County line. This region is characterized by a dense network of secondary roads and family-named landmarks that hint at the area's ancestral depth. Genealogists can identify several key burial sites, including Saint James Cem near the central drainage of Rainey Cr, as well as Meadows Cem and Brantly Cem in the northern reaches. The terrain is marked by numerous small tributaries like Bear Cr, Maddox Br, and French Cr, which historically dictated the placement of local crossings such as Driskell Bridge Rd and Craver Bridge Rd. This survey provides a clear look at the contemporary rural road system, connecting small properties via routes like Jackson Rd and Mae Oney Rd.
