About this map

Stateline Rd E and State Line Rd define the border between Memphis, Tennessee, and the rapidly growing suburbs of DeSoto County, Mississippi. This modern landscape is characterized by the expansive residential developments of Southaven, Olive Branch, and Horn Lake, which surround older geographic markers like Plum Point and Jago. Despite the suburban sprawl, numerous historical burial grounds are preserved throughout the area, including Saint Thomas Cem, Avery Chapel Cem, and Jeremiah Cem.

Drainage systems like Hurricane Cr and Nolehoe Cr meander through the terrain, leading toward the southern reaches of Hernando. The presence of several small water bodies, such as Sunrise Lake and Sunset Lake near Bridgetown, highlights the transformation of the rural landscape into a series of planned communities. Notable local landmarks like Mount Olive Cem and New Hope Cem serve as critical points of reference for genealogists tracing family histories across the state line.
