About this map

Okolona sits at the southeastern corner of this landscape, where the street grid of the town meets the rural drainage basins of the Mississippi Black Prairie region. Much of the western and northern terrain is defined by the Tombigbee National Forest, a managed woodland area intersected by the historic route of the Natchez Trace Parkway. This modern survey illustrates how historical boundaries, such as the Pontotoc and Chickasaw county lines, coincide with natural watercourses like Tallabinnela Creek and Tubbalubba Creek. Genealogists and local historians will find value in the specific placement of community landmarks including Pleasant Grove Cemetery and Memory Gardens. The map also traces the Chickasaw-Hay Trail, providing a clear view of the regional road network that links these wooded uplands to the agricultural plains near Mattubby Creek.
