About this map

The boundary between Mississippi and Alabama defines the eastern landscape of this quadrangle, where the settlements of Rounsaville and Walley anchor a terrain of dense creeks and family-named roads. For genealogists and local historians, several small burial sites are preserved, including the Rounsaville Hyatt Memorial Cemetery and the Old Burbank Cemetery near the community of Burbank.

Water plays a central role in the topography, with Okwakee Creek and Hurricane Branch feeding into the lowlands of Martins Swamp. Numerous tributary systems like Boggy Branch, Spring Branch, and Pat Branch weave through the timberlands, connected by a network of rural routes such as Henry Walley Road and Pilgrim Rest Road. The map also captures James Anthony Lake, providing a specific look at the region's hydrography and land use in recent years.
