About this map

Mooreville and Mantachie anchor this rural landscape in Northeast Mississippi, where the boundary between Lee and Itawamba counties meets. The map reveals a dense network of family-named cemeteries and small crossroads settlements that define the region's social geography. Places like Eggville, Shiloh, and Auburn are connected by a web of county roads and drainage systems, including Boguefala Creek and Mantachie Creek.

Genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of burial sites, ranging from the Old Spring Hill and New Spring Hill cemeteries to smaller family plots like the Sandlin Family Cem and Baldwin Family Cem. The landscape is largely defined by its watercourses, with Sand Creek and Lick Creek carving through the townships. The proximity of Suburban Acres to the larger settlements suggests the modern residential expansion occurring along the primary transit corridors.
