About this map

New Albany serves as the focal point of this 2021 study, where the Union County Courthouse and Union County Chancery Building stand as civic anchors near the Little Tallahatchie River. The landscape is defined by a dense network of county roads connecting small settlements like Poolville, Martintown, and Ingomar. This rural structure, punctuated by family and community landmarks such as Union Hill Cem and Pleasant Grove Cem, reflects a region where historic property lines and community centers have persisted alongside modern infrastructure.

Hydrological features dominate the terrain, including the wide King Creek Bottoms and the winding paths of Hell Creek and Okannatie Cr. Further south, the map documents the transition across the Union Co and Pontotoc Co boundary near Ecru. From the elevation of Bald Hill to the various cemeteries tucked away on backroads, this survey provides a modern geographic accounting of a landscape still shaped by its traditional creek-bottom agriculture and small-town foundations.
