2024 Map of Weir

About this map

The Yockanookany River winds through the southern portion of this region, shaping the local geography near the town of Weir. This landscape is deeply connected to its community heritage, evidenced by a high density of rural burial grounds such as Mill Springs Cem, Mount Moriah Cem, and the Bethlehem Missionary Baptist Church Cem. The Natchez Trace Parkway cuts diagonally across the northwest, following the historic path through Choctaw and Attala counties. Away from the main river valley, the terrain is defined by numerous drainage systems including Besa Chitto Creek and McCurtain Creek. The smaller settlement of Penderville anchors the southeast corner, connected by a network of rural routes like Chester Mills Rd and Weir Salem Rd that link these isolated homesteads and family landmarks.
