2018 Map of Mesa

About this map

Walthall County's landscape north of Tylertown is defined by a dense network of family-named roads and small community nodes. This 2018 survey shows a rural geography where the legacy of early families is preserved in the naming of cemeteries and throughways, such as Isaac Duncan Cem, Obed Magee Cem, and Elisha Thornhill Cem. Small settlements like Mesa, Dinan, and Rushing are spaced along the terrain, often centered on local intersections or church-and-school sites. The Paul Pittman Memorial Airport serves as a modern landmark amidst the older drainage patterns of Leatherwood Cr and Sweetwater Cr. The road system, including Dinan School Rd and Dinan Church Rd, illustrates how local infrastructure historically coalesced around central community institutions.
