2012 Map of Oloh

About this map

Oloh sits at a crossroads in Lamar County, Mississippi, serving as the primary hub in a landscape defined by an intricate network of waterways and timber-access roads. The community is well-represented for genealogical research, anchored by the Oloh Cem and several family-named burial grounds like Russell Cem, Slade Cem, and Buchanan Cem. Notably, three distinct locations of the Midway Cem Number One (along with numbers Two and Three) are clustered southeast of the main settlement. The terrain is deeply incised by creeks including Black Cr and Buckhalter Mill Cr, reflecting a history of local milling. Structural landmarks like the Oloh Lookout Tower and the Bob Lott Bridge provide specific points of reference for tracing the modern development of this rural corner of the state.
