About this map

Pace and Victor sit within the rich agricultural lands of the Mississippi Delta, a landscape defined by a complex network of bayous and former river channels. The terrain is marked by the winding paths of Snake Cr and Bogue Phalia, which drain the flat bottomlands alongside various oxbow remnants like Sixmile Lake and Kimball Lake. This map captures the area's rural character through its numerous family and community landmarks, including the Smith and Williams Cem and Bellamy Chapel to the north.

The settlement pattern follows a grid of local roads, such as Marberry Rd and Hiter Rd, which cut across the various township lines. On the eastern edge, the growth of Cleveland is evident near the Cleveland Municipal Airport, showing the transition from isolated agricultural hamlets to more modern municipal hubs. Genealogists will find particular value in the distribution of several small burial sites, such as Aycock Cem and New Hope Cem, scattered throughout the rural sections.
