2015 Map of Strong

About this map

Tombigbee River forms the eastern boundary of this landscape, where the shifting border between Clay, Monroe, and Lowndes counties meets. The area is defined by a dense network of creek systems including Fuller Cr, Hang Kettle Cr, and Spring Cr, which drain the lowlands between Strong and Vinton. This 2015 survey reveals a terrain deeply tied to its rural heritage, marked by numerous family and community burial grounds such as Lebanon Cem, Concord Number 2 Cem, and Mountain Union Cem. The proximity of Blocks Bluff and Boatyard Bluff along the river suggests a historic reliance on the waterway for transport and commerce. Small settlements like Darracott and Whites anchor the road network, which transitions from named local routes like Barton Ferry Rd and Old Vinton Rd to the primary transit of Old Highway 25.
