About this map

Star sits as a central crossroads on the border of Rankin Co and Simpson Co, where a network of local routes like Loflin Rd and Andrew Jackson Cir converge. The landscape is defined by its numerous rural burial grounds, including the centrally located Star Cem and the nearby Morning Star Cem, reflecting the deep-rooted community history of the region. To the north, the settlement of Anse is connected by Anse Rd and Green Hill Rd, while the southern reaches of the map feature Rexford and its namesake Rexford Cem.

Waterways like Mountain Cr and Limestone Cr navigate the terrain between these small communities. The presence of specialized sites like Falcon Field and several family or community-named cemeteries, such as Middleton Field Cem and Campbellite Cem, suggests a long-established pattern of rural land use. This survey provides a clear view of the area's development, showing how residential pockets and cemeteries are distributed along the creek valleys and ridge roads.
