2012 Map of Poplar Creek

About this map

Poplar Creek sits at the heart of this Montgomery County landscape, where a dense network of country roads like Old Boyd Rd and Poplar Creek Rd connects scattered family cemeteries and small rural holdings. The terrain is defined by the winding course of Poplar Cr and its numerous tributaries, including Little Poplar Cr and Armstrong Br, which drain the area toward the southern reach of Zilpha Cr. In the south, the modest elevation of Arnold Mountain stands near the confluence of Panther Cr, overlooking a region deeply rooted in local genealogy. Many burial grounds are found throughout the area, such as Old Pine Bluff Cem, Joe Walker Cem, and Shiloh Cem, which alongside both Old Friendship Cem and the newer Friendship Cem, provide critical touchstones for family researchers tracing generations in this part of Mississippi.
