2018 Map of Matherville

About this map

The border of Clarke Co and Wayne Co runs through this rural Mississippi landscape, centered on the historic crossroads of Matherville. This region is defined by a dense network of creek drainages, including the meandering Buckatunna Creek and its many tributaries like Shiloh Cr and Cypress Cr. For genealogists, the map is particularly detailed, pinpointing numerous small family and community burial grounds such as Matherville Cem, Scotch Chapel Cem, and the remote Gandy Cem. The road system, featuring names like Matherville Frost Bridge Rd and Waynesboro Matherville Rd, reflects the area's connectivity between small settlements. To the southeast, the community of Gretna sits near the junction of Old US Hwy 84, illustrating the settlement patterns in this timber and creek-rich portion of the state.
