2018 Map of New Hebron

About this map

New Hebron and Hebron serve as the primary hubs in this south-central Mississippi landscape, where the headwaters of Silver Creek divide into western and eastern prongs. The terrain is defined by a dense concentration of family and community burial sites, which suggest a deeply rooted rural population. Genealogists can trace significant local history through landmarks such as Dampeer Cem, Drummonds Cem, and Zion Hill Cem. The boundary between Lawrence and Jefferson Davis counties runs through the heart of the map, following a path that intersects several small tributaries like Fiddlers Creek and Hutchens Branch. This 2018 survey reveals a landscape still largely structured around its natural drainages and traditional road networks, providing a clear view of the area's ongoing rural character and historical family settlements.
