2018 Map of Ruth

About this map

Ruth serves as a central hub in this rural Lincoln County landscape, situated near the headwaters of Green Br and W Topisaw Cr. The map reveals a high density of family and community burial sites, including the Ruth Cem, Rawls Cem, and Price Cem, reflecting the deep-rooted genealogical history of the area. Further north, the small settlements of Wellman and East Lincoln are connected by a network of local routes such as Pleasant Grove Rd SE and E Lincoln Rd SE. The terrain is defined by the winding paths of Topisaw Cr and its tributaries, which dictate the placement of local homesteads and roads. This survey provides a modern snapshot of a classic Mississippi piney woods landscape, where small-scale farming and timber interests continue to shape the community layout.
