About this map

Walnut Grove serves as the primary hub in this recent survey of the Leake and Scott County borderlands. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Tuscolameta Creek and its complex network of tributaries, including Shockaloo Creek and Tallabogue Creek. The town itself is meticulously detailed, showing the layout of Main St, Maple St, and Lindsey Ave near the Walnut Grove Cem.

Genealogists will find significant value in the numerous burial sites scattered across the rural landscape, from Damascus Cem in the east to the Parker Cem and Rock Hill Cem further north. The southern portion of the quadrangle highlights the intersection of natural and engineered waterways where South Canal meets the creek systems near Horseshoe. The presence of Golden Memorial Park Lake adds a distinct recreational landmark to the timbered and wetland-rich terrain characteristic of this central Mississippi region.
