2015 Map of Union West

About this map

Union sits at the junction of the Neshoba Co and Newton Co line, serving as a primary hub for this rural Mississippi landscape. The terrain is defined by a dense network of waterways, including Sipsey Creek and Little Sipsey Creek to the north, and the winding Conehatta Creek which drains the central part of the quadrangle. Small, scattered settlements like New Ireland, Dover, and Barfoot are connected by a system of county roads, while Stratton and Lucern anchor the southern reaches. Local history is preserved in several family and community burial sites such as Beech Springs Cemetery and Abney Cemetery. The presence of the Union Municipal Airport and the crossing of various creeks suggest a region shaped by both its aviation infrastructure and its natural drainage patterns.
