2024 Map of Pocahontas

About this map

Bogue Chitto Creek and its many tributaries, including Linekiln Creek and Straight Fence Creek, define the rolling landscape of northern Hinds and Madison counties. This modern topographic view documents the interface between the growing northern reaches of Jackson and Clinton and the established communities of Pocahontas and Tinnin. Significant local landmarks include the Slobovia Outernational Airport and the historic Natchez Trace Parkway which cuts through the southeastern corner of the quadrangle. Several small burial grounds and places of worship, such as Shady Grove Church and Pocahontas Cem, remain central to the region's geography. The map also traces modern infrastructure like Medgar Evers Blvd, which follows a primary transit corridor through the heart of the settlement area.
