2015 Map of Waldrup

About this map

Waldrup and the surrounding woodlands of Jasper County are defined by a complex network of creeks that once shaped the settlement patterns of this Mississippi region. In this mid-2010s landscape, the waters of Tallahala Cr and Bogue Ealiah wind through the western reaches, while Tallahattah Cr dominates the central and eastern sections. For genealogists and local historians, the map preserves the location of Pisgah Cem and Philadelphia Cem, which serve as quiet markers of the community's ancestral roots near the small settlement of Kelona. The road network, including Old Bay Springs Rd, follows the higher ground between the drainages of Bogue Homo and Prairie Cr. This survey illustrates the persistent rural character of the area, where land divisions and drainage basins continue to dictate the placement of homes and local thoroughfares.
