About this map

Roxie serves as the focal point of this southwestern Mississippi landscape, where the street grid of Carolina St, Alabama St, and Tennessee St reveals a community structure tied to the surrounding timberlands of the Homochitto National Forest. The geography is defined by a dense network of watercourses including Morgan Fork, S Fork Coles Cr, and Wells Cr, which carve through the terrain between the settlements of Hamburg and Orange.

Genealogists will find a significant concentration of burial sites scattered across the rural townships, from the Saint Paul Cem in the north to the Smiley Cem in the southeast. Notable local landmarks like Wildwood Spring and the curiously named Gold Hole Rd provide specific points of interest for those tracing family roots or local lore in Franklin and Jefferson Counties. The transition between the northern Jefferson and southern Franklin county line is clearly demarcated, showing how these historical boundaries intersect with established routes like Hamburg Rd.
