The Big Black River serves as a prominent natural boundary between Yazoo and Madison counties, winding through a landscape defined by its creek systems and rural road networks. This modern survey by the U.S. Geological Survey documents the communities of Vaughan and Deasonville, along with numerous family and community landmarks that anchor the local heritage. Small cemeteries such as Alsop Cem, Williams Cem, and the Tucker Family Cem are scattered across the terrain, often located at the ends of winding tracks like Jim Dixon Rd or Possum Bend Rd.
