2015 Map of Preston

About this map

Preston and the surrounding timberland and creek bottoms are documented here where the borders of Winston, Noxubee, and Kemper counties converge. This rural landscape is defined by its small family and community burial grounds, such as the Rosamond Family Cem and Shepard Grove Cem, which suggest a long-established pattern of generational land ownership. The drainage of Hashuqua Cr and Dry Cr dictates the local geography, with the northern reaches featuring the Vernon Mill Pond and Good Hope Church. Small crossroads like Handle connect the network of local routes, including Ebenezer Church Rd and Old Mill Pond Rd, providing a detailed view of the rural infrastructure and religious centers like the Pleasant Springs Church Cem that have anchored these Mississippi communities for decades.
