About this map

The Tombigbee River forms the southeastern edge of this landscape, a region defined by the intersection of three counties. Centered on the rural community of Strong, the area is characterized by numerous small tributaries such as Hang Kettle Cr and Spring Cr that feed into the larger river basin. The map reveals a dense network of family and community landmarks, particularly evident in the concentration of burial sites like Strong Cem, Concord Number One Cem, and Vinton Cem.

Transitioning from the open land of Poe Field in the north toward the northern outskirts of West Point in the south, the terrain includes prominent elevations like Blocks Bluff and Boatyard Bluff overlooking the river valley. The map documents the persistent rural road network connecting established hamlets like Vinton and Darracott, providing a detailed look at the land division across the Monroe and Clay county lines.
