About this map

Smithtown and Piave serve as the primary focal points of this 2018 survey, which covers a heavily forested landscape along the boundary of Wayne and Greene Counties. The area is defined by the extensive reaches of the De Soto National Forest, where a network of rural roads and timber trails crisscross the terrain. Waterways such as Turkey Fork, Mason Cr, and Big Creek drain the undulating piney woods, with numerous smaller branches like Granny Br and Cary Cr carving through the creek bottoms.

Genealogists and local historians will find value in the specific family-named landmarks and infrastructure preserved on the map. Features such as Henderson Cem and roads like Bill Henderson Loop or Pat James Rd suggest a long-standing pattern of local land ownership. Traces of the region's industrial past are hinted at by Old Sawmill Rd near Piave, reflecting the timber economy that has long shaped these Mississippi backwoods.
