2024 Map of Silver City
USGS Topo · Published 2024About this map
The Yazoo River snakes through a dense network of bayous and wetlands where Humphreys, Holmes, and Yazoo counties converge. This riverine landscape is defined by its conservation areas, notably the Theodore Roosevelt National Wildlife Refuge and the Panther Swamp National Wildlife Refuge, which dominate the southern and central terrain. Human engineering is evident in the Will M Whittington Auxiliary Channel, a major flood control feature that cuts across the natural drainage of French Bayou and Atchafalaya Bayou. Small rural communities and historic landings dot the higher ground near the riverbanks, including the namesake Silver City and the settlement of Pluto. These areas provide valuable points of reference for local historians, with landmarks like Pluto Cem and Jones Cem preserved amidst the shifting waters of Tchula Lake and Little Kilby Lake.
