2018 Map of Rolling Fork West

About this map

Steele Bayou and its numerous branches, including the Steele Bayou Cutoff and East Prong Steele Bayou, dominate the alluvial landscape of the Mississippi Delta. The western outskirts of Rolling Fork are visible on the eastern edge of the survey, where the street grid transitions into the broad agricultural fields of the surrounding basin. This area is characterized by a complex network of bayous and wetlands, such as Tillman Bayou and Gross Bayou, which shape the local boundaries and land use. Small settlements and points of interest like Grace, Booth, and Lorenzen are connected by a web of rural roads including Grace Rd and Ending Bar Rd. The presence of the Weathers Cem and Elmwood Cem near Indian Bayou provides valuable landmarks for those researching local family history in this corner of Sharkey and Issaquena counties.
