About this map

The Yocona River valley and the eastern reaches of Enid Lake anchor this 1980s landscape at the intersection of Panola, Lafayette, and Yalobusha counties. The town of Water Valley occupies the southeastern corner, serving as a hub where the Otoucalofa Creek drainage meets local transit lines and the Water Valley Municipal Airport. The map reveals a rural social geography defined by numerous small congregations and burial grounds, such as New Providence Ch and Kind Providence Ch near the northern boundary, and Sylva Rena Cem to the south. The transition from the rugged drainage of Bynum Creek to the shoreline of the reservoir highlights the mid-20th-century transformation of this region by the U.S. Corps of Engineers. Notable local landmarks including the Courthouse and Hospital in the city center provide precise anchor points for local historians.
