About this map

Pontotoc anchors the northeast corner of this landscape, where the terrain rises toward the distinctive Pontotoc Ridge. The area is defined by a dense network of waterways feeding the Skuna River, including Lappatubby Cr, Chiwapa Cr, and Little Skuna Cr. These streams wind through a rural landscape dotted with established communities like Algoma, Springville, and Pannell.

Transport and local history are reflected in the various thoroughfares such as Old Monroe Rd W and Co Rd 124E, which connect family farms to the town center. The presence of Pontotoc Lake and Webster Cr near the town site highlights the importance of water resources to the local geography. This survey provides a clear look at the township and range divisions, such as t10s r2e, which have shaped land ownership in this part of Mississippi for generations.
