2020 Map of Shannon

About this map

The town of Shannon and the northern outskirts of Okolona anchor this landscape where three Mississippi counties—Lee, Chickasaw, and Monroe—converge. Small family and community cemeteries are frequent markers across the terrain, including the Whiteside Family Cem, Doty Chapel Cem, and New Prospect Cem. The drainage patterns of Chiwapa Creek and Tallabinnela Creek define the low-lying areas between the small settlements of Pine Grove and Poplar Springs. In the southern portion of the map, the Okolona Municipal Airport-Richard Stovall Field occupies a broad tract of land just east of the city's residential streets, like W Monroe Ave and E Main ST. This modern survey reflects the enduring rural structure of the region, where legacy farm roads like Camargo Rd and Okolona Rd connect historic crossroads and parish burial grounds.
