About this map

Mashulaville serves as the focal point of this Noxubee County landscape, where small community centers and rural churches define the social geography. The settlement patterns follow the winding paths of Hashuqua Creek and Wolf Creek, reflecting a reliance on the area's natural drainage for agricultural organization. Key local landmarks like the Mashulaville Ch and the Noxubee Lookout Tower stand alongside several family and community burial grounds, including Oak Leaf Cem and Mt Olive Cem.

Evidence of historical transportation is found in the Old RR Grade and Old Railroad Grade, which trace the path of former rail lines through the timber and farmland. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, the community of Macedonia is anchored by the Upper Running Water Ch near the banks of Running Water Creek. The presence of a Sandpit near the Mashulaville Community Center indicates the localized extraction industry common to this part of Mississippi during the early 1970s.
