About this map

The community of Sharon and the outskirts of Canton anchor this Madison County landscape, where family heritage is deeply etched into the geography. Numerous small cemeteries and country churches are scattered throughout the quadrangle, including the Grafton Family Cem and Holiday Family Cem, which offer significant points of interest for genealogists tracking local roots. The terrain is defined by a network of creeks like Hobuck Creek and Doaks Creek that flow through the timbered sections of the region.

Transportation and small-scale aviation are represented by the rural road network and Supplejack Airport near Supple Jack Rd. Distinctive water bodies such as Tithel Lake and the Twin Lakes contrast with the larger drainage of the Tilda Bogue to the south. This survey captures a rural Mississippi corridor where long-established church congregations, like Sims Chapel Cem and Saint John Missionary Baptist Church Cem, remain central landmarks in the local community structure.
