2015 Map of Terry

About this map

The town of Terry serves as the focal point of this 2015 survey, situated at a historic crossroads where Railroad Ave and the modern I-55 corridor intersect. This landscape on the border of Hinds and Copiah counties is defined by a dense network of small tributaries, including Beaverdam Cr and Harris Cr, which have shaped the local topography and settlement patterns. Several cemeteries, such as the Benevolent Society Cem and the County Line Cem, provide critical points of interest for genealogists tracing families in this rural Mississippi corridor. Scattered settlements like Morgans Store and Egypt Hill illustrate the persistent rural character of the region, while labels like Moncure and Rosemary mark established locales along the arterial roads and rail lines that connect these communities to the larger state economy.
