About this map

Cyclone and the rural communities southeast of Magee are defined by a complex network of waterways and ancestral burial grounds. The Bouie River and Skiffer Cr drainage systems carve through the landscape, dictating the placement of early settlements and family-named roads. Notable for its high density of small cemeteries, the area preserves the names of early residents through sites like Hen Magee Cem, Rials Creek Cem, and the Old Saint Peter Cem. Modern development is represented by the Magee Municipal Airport near the northern boundary, while the small crossroads of Jaynesville remains a focal point in the southeast. This map captures the balance between long-standing family landholdings and the necessary infrastructure of Simpson County in the early 21st century.
