2024 Map of Sarepta

About this map

Sarepta sits at the northern edge of this landscape in Calhoun County, Mississippi, where the drainage systems of McGill Creek and Lucknuck Creek carve through the terrain. To the south, the city of Bruce marks a transition toward the broader valley of the Skuna River. This area is defined by its numerous small waterways, including Yoda Creek and Lick Creek, which feed into the river system. The presence of Moorehead Lakes and the distinct rise of Johnny Main Mountain in the southeast provide recognizable landmarks for local researchers. For those exploring family history, several burial grounds are preserved across the quadrangle, including Antioch Cem, Mount Moriah Cem, and Bruce Cem. The road network, comprised largely of county routes like Co RD 175 and Co RD 131, connects these rural homesteads and agricultural spaces, reflecting a long-standing pattern of settlement between the river and the northern uplands.
