About this map

The Chickasawhay River serpentines through the heart of this East Mississippi landscape, defining the topography of the border between Clarke and Wayne counties. The historic town of Shubuta serves as a primary point of reference, with its grid of streets such as Eucutta St and High St clustered north of the river. This 2018 survey reveals a territory marked by family lineages and community landmarks, particularly evident in the distribution of rural burial grounds like Menasco Cem and Atkinson Cem.

Further south, the small settlements of Hiwannee and West King anchor the rural landscape, while an intricate network of waterways—including Eucutta Cr, Shubuta Creek, and Carson Sand Cr—flows toward the river. The presence of numerous cemeteries and named tributaries like MacDavid Millpond Br provides a clear view of the longstanding community hubs and resource-based economy that have shaped this portion of the Pine Belt.
