About this map

McAdams and Earlyville serve as central points in this Attala County landscape, where rural communities are defined by a dense network of local family burial grounds and small watercourses. The distribution of sites like Springdale Cem, Musselwhite Cem, and Pleasant Ridge Cem suggests a long-standing pattern of family-centered settlement across the rolling terrain. These communities are linked by routes such as Old State Hwy 12 and Sallis Mcadans Rd.

Water plays a primary role in the geography, with Apookta Cr and its tributaries, including Little Apookta Cr and Taylor Cr, carving through the area. Several man-made features like Youth Center Lake, Atwood Lake, and Bailey Lake dot the landscape, alongside the Country Club Lake near Hurricane. The map provides a detailed view of the drainage patterns of Long Cr and Pony Br that shape the agricultural and residential layout of this Mississippi interior.
