About this map

Scooba and Electric Mills serve as the primary anchors of this eastern Mississippi landscape, where the prairie transitions into a network of creek bottoms and timber tracts. The town of Scooba is home to East Mississippi Community College and several local landmarks, including Cedar Lawn Memorial Cem and the nearby Blue Chapel. The surrounding countryside is defined by an extensive drainage system featuring Pushacoona Creek, Big Scooba Creek, and Bodka Creek, which wind through the township and range divisions.

Industrial and agricultural history is visible in the network of timber roads, such as Weyerhaeuser Rd, and historic local routes like Old 45 Rd and Jackson Hwy. To the east, smaller community sites like Giles are marked by Giles Cem and Sunny Giles Church Cem, providing specific points of interest for genealogists tracing local families. The map also records numerous localized features like Fox Prairie Rd and Douglas Quarters, reflecting the long-established settlement patterns of Kemper County.
