2024 Map of Milo

About this map

Saline River bottomlands and the surrounding timberlands of Ashley County define this area as it appeared in the early 21st century. The map centers on the small community of Milo and the nearby site of Old Milo, providing a detailed look at the rural landscape before it transitions into the river's drainage basin to the west. Genealogical interest is particularly high here, as the terrain is dotted with numerous burial grounds including Egypt Cem, Zion Cem, and Eden Baptist Church Cem. The western edge of the quadrangle is dominated by the winding course of the river, where landmarks like Moffatt Bluff and Black Lake indicate an environment of old oxbows and river bends. A network of county roads, such as Todd Moffatt Rd and Snake Flat Rd, connects these remote settlements and historic family sites across the creek-fed lowlands of Flat Creek and Fountain Creek.
