2024 Map of Velma

About this map

Velma serves as the central hub of this Yalobusha County landscape, where the intersection of Co Rd 90 and Velma Rd marks a historic rural crossroads. The area is characterized by a high density of family and community burial grounds, such as Gilmore Cem, Shiloh Cem, and Broadstreet Cem, which offer significant value for genealogical research into the region’s early families. The religious life of the community is anchored by the Rocky Mount Missionary Baptist Church, located south of the main settlement. The terrain is defined by a series of creeks, including Simpson Creek and Durden Creek, which feed into the larger hydrologic network of the Cypress Creek basin. The transition from older routes like Old Hwy 32 to the modern county road system illustrates the long-standing transportation patterns that have supported these Mississippi communities for generations.
